Mystery Mid-ġimgħa

Filwaqt I xogħol fuq post aktar sostanzjali, inti tista 'isem dan butterfly – u l-impjant għandu jkun pjuttost faċli wisq. Bonus Extra jekk inti tista raden il-kontea (istat mhux se jkunu wisq impressjonanti) fejn I ħa din photo. Dan kien qabel DSLR, iżda taħbit qodma tiegħi up canon punt-u-rimja ma rnexxilhomx jiksbu . . . → Aqra Aktar: Mystery Mid-ġimgħa

Monarch dimenzja

Għall-qarrejja regolari tal-blog tiegħi inti tista 'diġà jafu pożizzjoni tiegħi fuq il-monarka, iżda ilaħħqu hawn jekk tixtieq. Ilbieraħ I sab dan l-artikolu fil-ħinijiet LA – dwar il-kolonji overwintering ta 'renjanti fil-Paċifiku Grove, CA. Hawn, punent tal-qasma kontinentali, hemm pjuttost . . . → Aqra Aktar: Monarch dimenzja

Genius tal-Istampa XI

This genius of the press is extra special, not for its difficulty, but for its redundancy. I found the same story carried on two separate sources, with different imagesand both equally incorrect! I can imagine that it won’t take long for someone to point out exactly what’s wrong with these stories (hint, hemm . . . → Aqra Aktar: Genius tal-Istampa XI

Genius of the Press X

This one is just too easy. Il-billboard jinsab fuq I-35 fin-nofsinhar ta 'Burleson, Texas.

Ma nafx il-provenjenza vera ta 'din l-immaġni, imma wasal tiegħi minn Omar Bocanegra permezz ta’ Mike Quinn fuq il-lista-serv ta’ Texas Lepidoptera.

Porn Butterfly

Here is a hill-topping male Papilio zeliacon, jew swallowtail Anisi. Dan farfett hija mifruxa fl-istati tal-Paċifiku tal-Punent u huwa probabbilment ħafna aktar komuni milli kienet darba. Wara l-introduzzjoni ta 'bużbież (Vulgare Foeniculum), u ħarba sussegwenti mill-ortikultura, il swallowtail anisi ħa istiva bħala farfett California komuni. Perhaps before this . . . → Aqra Aktar: Porn Butterfly

This time, with a moth

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. It was some of the best day collecting I’ve done in years, and fellow road tripper Peter Jump and I discovered this . . . → Aqra Aktar: This time, with a moth

The only bar in town

In eastern Lassen county, on the vast high juniper hills of the California-Nevada border, there are herds ofwildhorses, sheep and cattle. Par for the course, the only flowering plant around was horehound (Marrubium vulgare). Despite the non-native flora and (semi)mega-fauna, the insects were still at home. Being the only nectar source, the small . . . → Aqra Aktar: The only bar in town

Fit-triq għal darb'oħra

Over the next week and a half I’ll be driving up to Washington state for the annual Lepidopterists’ Laqgħa tas-soċjetà. Hija tinsab fil-belt ta 'nassa turistika ta' Leavenworth, li hija a “Tema tal-Bavarja” diorama ta' ħwienet tal-kartolini u tal-isblukkar. Filwaqt li qatt ma nista' nifhem sewwa l-appell tal-bliet b'tema, it is something . . . → Aqra Aktar: Fit-triq għal darb'oħra

Ġenju ta 'l-Istampa VIII

Merħba għall-volum tmien tas-serje inkonsistenti reoccurring, Genius tal-Istampa. I came across this article recently regarding an endemic Puerto Rican butterfly. Min jista tell me eżattament għaliex dan ir-rapport hija qarrieqa? Hija tista 'tkun ftit delikati mill-GOP standard (Nissuġġerixxi rimi xi akronimi assoċjati preċedentement ma 'dawk l-ittri). . . . → Aqra Aktar: Ġenju ta 'l-Istampa VIII

Il Moth u 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. Remembering a time or location where this happened is impossible, and like . . . → Aqra Aktar: Il Moth u Me #12
