Athrylith y Wasg X

This one is just too easy. The billboard is on I-35 south of Burleson, Tecsas.

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.

Western Arizona

A few months ago I was out collecting in western Arizona and failed to follow through with any images or updates on that trip. Wel, it was a success and well worth the miles to get there! I was searching for a Crambid moth in the mountains of the Kofa National Wildlife Refuge (special thanks . . . → Darllen Mwy: Western Arizona

Ar y ffordd eto

Over the next week and a half I’ll be driving up to Washington state for the annual Lepidopterists’ Cyfarfod Cymdeithas. Mae wedi'i leoli yn nhref trap twristiaid Leavenworth, sef a “thema Bafaria” diorama o siopau cardiau post a chlocsiau. Er na allaf byth ddeall yn iawn apêl trefi â thema, it is something . . . → Darllen Mwy: Ar y ffordd eto

Genius y Wasg, v. VI

It’s good to throw a changeup every one in a while, and this week here is an article that is actually GOOD. Oes, you read it here first, a positive article about entomology collections.

Blasu gwyfynod yn Napa

Roedd hi'n ddiwrnod hyfryd heddiw yn ardal y bae, felly es i fyny i Napa a Dyffryn y Pab. Roeddwn yn sgowtio rhyw diriogaeth newydd ar gyfer gwyfyn blodau bach, Heliolonche celeris, mae'n debyg ei fod yn aros am fwy o dywydd braf cyfagos i ddod i'r amlwg.

Efallai y byddaf yn gyrru gormod

The clouds broke this afternoon in San Francisco and the sun began to shine. The upcoming warm weather induced an all too familiar feeling, one that I should be out collecting insects and not sitting indoors! While I have already been to a handful of places this spring, I have a long season of collecting . . . → Darllen Mwy: Efallai y byddaf yn gyrru gormod

Rhan Aquamoth 3

A continuation of the aquamoth series, this time with video from Science Friday! Oes, I have to link it because wordpress won’t embed… Diolch Ted, figured it out!

I’ll give you my Ken Griffey Jr. canys…

This is something I’ve never seen before. Growing up I have always had someone give me some kitsch object with insects on them, even playing cards. Well even last year I got another insect themed tie. (I don’t have the whimsey of PZ Myers and his awesome tie.)
