A big new project
Leave it to me to find a new project to fill the Winter months. I've started a photo album to document all of the different species of butterflies and moths that I've photographed at the butterfly house where I volunteer. It is possible that I may also be producing a digital form of the album for them to use for guests and volunteers.
I have the full cooperation of the chief entomologist in identifying the ones that I'm unsure about. He sounds very excited about my project too.

Re: A big new project
Yep....leave it to you!
But it is a great idea and will be wonderful reference material for guests, as well as when training new employees and as a teaching aid, if schools bring classes there!

Re: A big new project
They definitely have school groups visit. If I'm lucky I'll get to talk to the entomologist during the next meeting of the lepidopterists club that I belong to. It is next weekend and being held at the Discovery Gardens, which gives me the perfect excuse to visit and take more photos.

Re: A big new project
I got my first big group of photos IDed. As I'm sorting the last of the ones that I've been working on I've come across a few more. I'll probably just e-mail them or maybe print them and have them with me when I pick up my calendar up there.

Re: A big new project
Now comes the fun part of choosing my favorite shot of each species and seeing how many that I have both top and bottom side shots of. I'll also be looking for male and female images for any that I have.
