Insect Collection








Ashes to ashes...see the piles of insect dust under each carefully pinned and identified specimen spot? I took an entomology class once. Collected one hundred different [genuses? I forget] The kids love looking at it, perhaps too much, because I think someone left the boxes open. Anyway, I took it out to supplement a science class with Luke and a friend. We're studying insects...and now we have plenty of insect dust, wings, and body shells to examine under our microscope. We're also examining the invaders who broke into the insect boxes: they came, they ate, they died.

That's very interesting. I've always wondered what happened to those collections.
