Ang boses ng mga tao, volume I

I’ve come across a few e-mail transcripts of questions sent into our entomology department and I can not resist sharing them. I promise these messages are (and will be) 100% real and unedited. Names have been changed or removed to protect the innocent. Hopefully, I will come across these every once in a while, at . . . → Basahin Higit pang mga: Ang boses ng mga tao, volume I

Butterfly of the week

I’ve been a bit remiss at posting regular challenges, so I’ll try to pick up the pace. Who can tell me anything about this butterfly?

Baka masyado akong magmaneho

Nabasag ang mga ulap ngayong hapon sa San Francisco at nagsimulang sumikat ang araw. Ang paparating na mainit na panahon ay nagdulot ng isang pamilyar na pakiramdam, isa na dapat akong lumabas sa pagkolekta ng mga insekto at hindi nakaupo sa loob ng bahay!

Mga Ilog ng Ginto

A few images from my weekend mothing trip down to Shell Creek, San Luis Obispo County. Early spring along the central coast is stunning, and the back roads were packed with flower watchers.

Masyadong maraming libreng oras?

Than fold yourself an insect.

These pieces of art are the creation of Robert J. Lang. Chances are if you’ve seen some insane origami than they were his creation. Oo, those are actually made from one single piece of uncut paper.
