1. Ronald Reagan Minuteman Missile State Historic Site Cooperstown North Dakota
The Ronald Reagan Minuteman Missile State Historic Site consists of two former missile sites around Cooperstown, North Dakota that were part of North Dakota military activities during the Cold War years: the Oscar-Zero Missile Alert Facility and the November-33 Launch Facility.

The abundance of water and the rich diversity of plant life support a seasonally-astonishing plethora of small animal life (in addition to vast populations of much maligned ticks and mosquitoes). Most of the moth fauna featured in my 'YouTube' films and photographs archived in my 'Bug Guide' collections (2009-2015) were found and photographed in this State Park.

This film, an all too brief, 4-minute visual introduction to the TRSP, was made on 26 April 2015, just before the swollen leaf buds on the ash, aspen, basswood, box elder, cottonwood and oak were fully morphed into photosynthetically-functional leaves.
