Posted by mamabear at May 22, 2009 8:18 PMHi,
I have two posts for the ark today: for Invertebrates, In shallow waters (Crabs), and Why do we call it "vacant"? has both Birds (killdeer) and Invertebrates (leafhopper nymphs).
Thanks!
Posted by Susannah at May 22, 2009 11:16 PMHi, again;
I have another series of photos, this time of a dancing weevil, for Invertebrates. Weevil's evening out.
:)
Posted by Susannah at May 23, 2009 1:50 AMMe again. Thanks for loading my critters to the ark. But there has been a slight error; the invertebrates ended up in the "In Memoriam" section. If you have the time, could you move them, please?
The dancing weevil is disturbing the peace in there. :-D
