Likely an escaped captive animal based on how unlikely it would be getting here on it's own. No band however.

Robust but low herb, no more than about 1/4 meter tall, and very hairy, growing along Poopout Trail, Dalton Ridge, front range of the San Gabriel Mountains. Candy recipe followed:
- Collect a decent amount of fresh horehound (see photo # 2).
- Strip leaves off of stems and add to a pot with 2 cups of water.
- Bring water to boil for a few minutes and let it steep off heat for a while.
- Decant the liquid into 2 cup measuring cup and take note of the approximate recovered volume.
- Measure out an equal volume of sugar, or use honey up to about 1/4 of the volume of the liquid from step # 4.
- Add sugar, honey, 1 teaspoon cream of tartar, and a approximately 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to the liquid and boil until the liquid comes to 300 F (150 C).
- Grease a large plate with butter while the candy climbs to temperature.
- When the candy mixture comes to its final temperature, remove from heat, and pour the candy onto the buttered plate.
- Allow hot candy to cool for a few minutes.
- Once cooled enough to handle safely, use a knife or spoon to pull away small pieces of candy, and using hands, roll the candy into balls, canes, or whatever desired shape, and place on a second buttered plate to cool.

I’m very perplexed by this. It’s whorled with 4 leaves, I can’t think of anything off the top of my head that looks like this around here…any help would be appreciated! I plan to revisit this in the spring.

Are there multiple kinds of bees here? There was a spill of charcoal on the shore of the pond and dozens and dozens of bees were - as far as I can tell - drinking water from it? Not sure at all

In the field I assumed it was a type of silverfish without looking too closely, but the AI suggestions think it's a bristletail and they may be right.

Didn't really get a good picture, so here's a "great" one instead
Edited: I cloned the observation, so this observation will be for the right grebe and https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/103672738 for the left grebe.
