Yeah, I've learned a ton since I started posting things here. Mostly about insects!

No worries BlueAppaloosa :) That's what the site's for, plus I research butterflies, so I'm very used to it.

Perhaps I should stop trying to ID butterflies, I always seem to get them wrong. Oh well, only way to learn, I suppose. :)
