Insects, Butterflys, Moths and others.

All insects. I loved entomology in college, since moving to NC I finally get to see insects I only studied in books and not in person.

July 17, 2011-Finally caught a dragonfly. My wheelchair makes enough noise to scare off most insects whenever I try to get close to them. Today this one first flew off but I stayed where I was and watched him circle back and he posed for me. (Hey I'm telling the story here, so we'll stick to he posed for me, rather than say it's normal behavior). 198:365
