February
High country
Large terrestrial insects abundant and very important, especially cicadas, hoppers and crickets. Green beetles less common. Net building caddis smaller on average in size due to the older cohorts hatching. Horn caddis still abundant. Deleatidium hatches less common but nymphs still common. Stone cased caddis not as common due to emergence. Free living green caddis still abundant.
Low country
Willow grubs still falling, but less common. Most feeding on Deleatidium nymphs and cased caddis. Caddis hatches less common but still occurring. Chronomids still common.
