What a week! My brain is full of insect lore and ecological questions. More to come next week – and beyond – about what I learned from our visiting entomologists, and about our successful field day today (over 100 people showed up!).
For now, it’s late and I’m ready for bed, but need to get a photo of the week posted. So – here you go.
Have a great weekend.
