Still need to ID your specimens!
Remind me to come back to these pics once I get those slide mounted.

Hi Natalie,
Doris says she will look at specimens and I'll be sending some to her soon. I found quite a few more this year, in 2 locations.

PS. Asking me to remind anyone of anything is like talking to air. (Intermittent and random access memory but I do try to keep a sense of humor).

Haha well it helps me to see it in text!
If I write something down or text it I'm more likely to remember than when I just say it to myself or hear it.

Hopefully Doris knows what they are, or you've found a new species for her to name!
