Greetings, VBS Volunteers: Here’s an opportunity to expand your insect horizons. As many of you may already know, the Vermont Entomological Society is our state’s premier organization for the study and appreciation of insects (including butterflies). VES has an awesome newsletter, runs exciting field trips and has an abundance of members fascinated with most any kind of invertebrate. (VBS’s own Bryan Pfeiffer is the VES president.) Now VES has its own email discussion group. I’m convinced it will become THE premier electronic bulletin board about insects in Vermont. Even if you’re not yet a VES member, you can join the on-line group by visiting http://groups.google.com/group/Vermont-Entomological-Society. But in order to continue using the service, please do join VES. Membership is a mere $10 per year. You can join by visiting the VES web site at: www.vermontinsects.org. Thanks!
