Biography:

In our retirement, my husband and I are playing with photographing and identifying the beasties at the cottage. Insects are a part of that, more difficult than even the birds. Our photos are from Lat 45.25N Long -76.479, almost due west of Ottawa. You are welcome to use any of my photos, if they are useful to you. I'd appreciate knowing if you're going to do something interesting with one though.
