Cov huab rhuav no tav su rau San Francisco thiab lub tshav pib ci. Cov huab cua sov yavtom ntej vim raug yuam ib tug paub ib yam nkaus thiab tag nrho lawm, ib qho uas kuv yuav tsum tawm mus sau cov kab thiab tsis zaum nyob hauv tsev! Thaum kuv twb tau mus ib handful qhov chaw no rau lub caij nplooj hlav, Kuv muaj ib lub caij ntev uas muab tom ntej. Nrhiav rau pem hauv ntej kuv pab tsis tau, tiam sis yuav muaj kev cuam tshuam rau ntawm ob lub spectacular lawm xyoo sab hnub poob lawm muab kuv. Mus illustrate kuv yees, ntawm no yog ib lub npe duab ntawm kuv lub ntsiab lus Google ntiaj teb GPS.
Txhua tus chij nruab nrab yog ib collecting kem event (disregard cov pins daj), thaum lub caij nplooj zeeg 2007 thiab lub caij ntuj no 2009. Kuv muaj tsis cia taug qab cov cov mais rau cov nplooj siab muab khaws tseg mus ua si (kab tias kom tsis txhob poob siab), tab sis, nws yuav tsum tau nce 30,000. Kuv tus Hasdas Accord kuj tsis yog ib lub tsheb raug tshav, tab sis nws yuav ua rau qhov kev ncua deb tshuam ntau nqis. Kiag rau ob tug ca log tsheb thiab tawg losis tsis pab. Koj yuav tau yooj yim paub tias kuv nyob rau yav qab teb California nrog ntawd giant blob ntawm tus chij. Feem ntau ntawm cov neeg muaj teem nyob rau hauv cov cheeb nroog raug Barbara, uas yielded ob hom tshiab thiab cov ntaub ntawv rau lub nroog dozens. Arizona los nrog ob tug thib ob 10 ib hnub mus ua si nrog txhua hmo nyob rau hauv ib qho chaw sib txawv. Kuv mam li ua pub dawb rau southwest dhau lub caij ntuj sov thiab tsav lub voj ntev los ntawm kev uas nyob nruab ntsab dua kawm kom ob thiab ib nrab hnub lis piam. Kuv kuag ib ncig 4,000 lepidoptera thiab muaj tab tom muab cov finishing touches rau ntawm qhov kev xeem ntawm lub nrws. Li ntawd, nyob deb, tsuas muaj ib hom tshiab – tshem ib tib tug me me ntawm ib Acrolophidae me me los ntawm thaj Texas (txiav txim los ntawm Peter Jump uas yog sau ntawv rau MONA fascicle rau cov pab pawg). Txaus lawm los tseem ID.
Ntawm lub Rooj Tswjhwm Saib rau lub xyoo no: Ib qho chaw twg los Leavenworth, Washington rau lub 2010 Lepidopterists’ Lub neej sib tham. Qhov ob limtiam txawv tebchaws muab khaws tseg yuav tua sab qaum teb mus rau Washington ces ntxees sab hnub tuaj mus txog Idaho, Utah thiab Nevada rau txoj kev hauv tsev. Tab sis raws li ib txwm, Arizona thiab Mexico no beaconing. Thiab tam sim no tias kuv nyob hauv Berkeley kuv yuav tau nkag tau rau hauv cov Sierra ob peb ntau zaug xyoo no!
Txias daim ntawv qhia – koj yuav ua yuav muab npaum li cas?
Kuv twb tau ib daim ntawv qhia ib qho nyuaj rau ntawm cov phab ntsa hauv kuv txoj kev tshawb no nrog ib tug liab glasshead nawj ntawm txhua collecting tas kuv twb xyuas txij thaum 1982 (yep, Kuv nyob li qub!). Tsis muaj lus nug txog sab hnub poob thiab Mexico yog nws nyob qhov twg hauv, tab sis, hauv lub xyoo tsis ntev los no kuv twb muaj enamored heev uas lub nras Great – qhov chaw uas koj tseem pom lawm hais tias muaj tau tsawm tsawv thiab tsis ncaj ncees ignored.
Kuv txuas kuv GPS rau Google ntiaj teb, uas tso cai rau kuv mus download tau lub waypoints thiab lem. Qhov kawg khoom no tsuav yog tau vim, tiam sis nws tseem zoo tiag tiag kom tau tag nrho koj collecting ntsiab lus yeej mapped! Kuv yuav mus lus rov qab los rau ntawm kuv database, muaj lub nias ntawm ib tus khawm nws ua ib qho google ntiaj teb daim ntawv qhia rau cov ceevxwm uas kuv nrws.
Heck zoo – suab li kuv yuav tsum tau ib tus zoo GPS, vim kuv twb tsis muaj cov peevxwm ces.

Kuv kaj lias koj yuav cuag rau tib lub hom phiaj ntawm manually mus rau koj lub waypoints thiab tso tau ib tus pin rau google ntiaj teb. A tshuav slower ho thaum koj sau sai npaum li cas raws li kuv (Kuv xav tias koj yuav ua!).
Tsaug rau cov lus, Kuv yeej kuv enjoying qhov nruab nrab, Kuv twb pib puag ta xav! kuv pom zoo ib yam thiab, tam sim no muaj ntau heev ob peb entomology zoo blogs, tab sis, koj li yog ib qhov zoo tshaj plaws.
