Biography:

I'm a photographer who wants to help make science more accessible by attaching images to as many species names as possible. All of my photos can be found on iNaturalist (user:cocokitty), and if I notice I have an image of something in a state/month that is not yet recorded on BugGuide, I will upload the observation here.
