Nepa! - Nepa apiculata
Pleasant Pond, Wenham, Essex County, Massachusetts, USA
April 21, 2011
Took the kids to the pond, and brought a dip net and enamel pan just in case. Did not catch much, but this one was a treat! First time I can recall seeing one, and apparently a first MA record for the Guide. Can't believe I beat Tom Murray to something for once!
