Summer Insects
Each year, it seems that the later we get into summer, the more insects we find in the field and at the apartment. Here are a few examples.

Nice collection of summer insect photos. I like the translucent areas of the common whitetail dragonfly's wings. I've never noticed that kind of dragonfly before.
Sweet--you must have water nearby? Years ago I did a historical study of James George Needham, THE dragonfly guy c. 1910-40. Interesting critter. I like when they grab mosquitoes so close to your ear you can hear them crunch.
I liked this blog, i think is very interesting, most of all for the new ideas that this blog contain. I must to say it catched my attention since the first time that saw this blog. I usually like everything that can give me what i am looking for. So i advice you buy viagra all the benefits this medicine can give you are wondeful.
