Bug Pictures


These are the pictures I wanted to post with my previous post on my bug collection. The first picture is of the dragonfly minus 1 leg and the wonky beetles. The second picture is how I have to pin butterflies/moths in order to display them with their wings out. They call it a relaxation board but as far as I'm concerened it looks more like a torture board. Note the Oilers lamp on the table, not only does it provide me with the extra light I need but also some peace of mind because I know hockey will be starting soon and since I will have cable I will be able to watch the games. Yahoo!!! I predict a serious decline in my grades once the season starts but it will definetly be worth it.

Nice pictures! I'm very impressed that your white butterfly has both of its antennae! Most of my lepidopterans were missing at least one antenna.

I like how you labelled where in the fridge you found your dragonfly.

Very close attention to detail Carol. Although, the label on the dragonfly actually says that the dragonflies spare leg is in the freezer so I can put it with the dragonfly and loss less marks when I hand in my project (it was not where I found it in the fridge).

I love the pics. I think it looks cool and I agree, why the heck is it called a relaxation board when you have to stress about not breaking legs and stuff trying to stick the sucker on there!
