Just about time for another volume of Genius of the Press. Who will be first to spot the error here? Roddwyd, the information section of the california flat rate moving website is not exactly a source of top notch journalism

Y tro hwn, gyda gwyfyn

Here are a few more images from my recent northern road trip, this time from western Idaho. Right outside the town of New Meadows were fields of flowers thick with life.

Y Gwyfyn and Me #12

Welcome to The Moth and Me #12, and my first blog carnival. Despite blogging for a few months I have yet to take a look back and reflect on exactly how I became enamored with lepidoptera in the first place.
