Dear VTLEPists-
I thought I would take this opportunity to stir the inner butterfly
in you.
Additionally, we began a monthly "species in the
spotlight". The first one is West Virginia White. You can see that
at
http://www.uvm.edu/~vbap/species.htm.
If anyone wants to ever put together a short "species in the
spotlight", please let me know. We would love your help.
Also there is information about our addition of giant silkmoths to
the survey. Now is a great time to wonder around looking for the large
baggy cacoons, monitor them and report them. See
http://www.uvm.edu/~vbap/silkmoth.htm.
Neat web links too!
Well, back to data entry. The first season data will be online
before the snow starts to melt and thoughts turn to the first Mourning
Cloak.
