Really like your photos!

[*]The tree kinda looks like birch but really can't tell. BTW,     are you sure about the bumps being caused by scale or gall mites?
[*]Loons have small wings relative to their body size. Thus they     must gain speed in order for sufficient air to flow under their     wings for take off. Also Loons unlike most birds have solid bones,     not unlike the geotropic penguin.  
[*]Don't really know so two guesses. Poke berry certainly has     very dark berries but I never heard of anyone concocting soda from the poke berry … salads yes (ask Annie!). I have heard of blackberry soda but     only homemade which was called blackberry soda.   
[*]The leaves and flower seem to closely resemble those of the     dogwood tree.
[*]This is a damselfly since its wings are folded back against     its body. The dragonfly at rest has its wings perpendicular to its     body.
[*]True. Mrs. SVC and I would drive NW of Saint Louis to Lock &     Dam 24 on the Mississippi River to view anywhere from 30 to 75 bald     eagles. They wintered there for easy “pickens.” The fish would     get stunned by the lock & dam operation and float on the water.
[*]Kindling  
[*]Rocky Mountains
[*]The Pink Slipper Orchid! At least this is what it reminds me     off.
[*]Lichen   
[*]It eats milkweed which is poisonous. Our Penn State Master     Gardener Program has been encouraging gardeners to plant milkweed     which we provide to help the Monarch flutter-by. Of course it comes     with a great deal of education since eating milkweed is a risky     proposition without detailed knowledge which kids don't understand.     So save the Monarchs or the kids?   
[*]Some variety of the pitcher plant.     
[*]The Little Boote squirrel!  
[*]Eratics
[*]Shelf mushrooms
