Insect Collection: Part I

Hello Butterflies

Some of you may know that I've gone a little insect mad as of late. Well, today I thought I'd show you some of the work I've been doing at uni and the reason behind my tardy posts. The first preview of our insect collections are due today, and these are the first 4 specimens (out of 30) of my collection.

A little horrified at first, I soon grew to love the process of collecting, pinning and displaying insects. While it may not be everyone's cup of tea, I think you may at least be able to appreciate the magic of the little critters that live in our backyards.

Have a happy day.
