Hi Jody,
Got any pictures to share? My first decent bug shot is in this months PUG,
and I have some flowers at
http://dscott.home.texas.net/photo/FA100_p1/FA100_p1.html (click on the
thumbnails to see larger versions, and there is a link to the second page
at the bottom of the first). Wildflower season is fixing to start up here,
so I should be able to get quite a workout soon.
