I don’t know the true provenance of this image, but it came my way from Omar Bocanegra via Mike Quinn on the Texas Lepidoptera list-serv. Fa uns mesos vaig estar recollint a l'oest d'Arizona i no vaig poder seguir amb cap imatge o actualització d'aquell viatge.. Bé, va ser un èxit i va valdre la pena els quilòmetres per arribar-hi! I was searching for a Crambid moth in the mountains of the Kofa National Wildlife Refuge (special thanks . . . → Llegir més: Oest d'Arizona Over the next week and a half I’ll be driving up to Washington state for the annual Lepidopterists’ Reunió de societat. It is located in the tourist-trap town of Leavenworth, which is a “Bavarian themed” diorama of postcard and clog shops.

Sí, I have to link it because wordpress won’t embed… Gràcies Ted, figured it out! This is something I’ve never seen before.
