All the Illustrious Insects & Spiders
Our observation of insects and spiders began in the summer of 2015 in our backyard habitat. Over the years we have observed numerous species of wasps, beetles, flies, dragonflies, ants, bees, and spiders on the various pollinator plants on our property, or lurking about on a moth collecting sheet.
