week 8 The Insect Life Cycle

This week continue collecting and spreading insects for your collection. As weather permits, we have a little time each day to go out into the field. However, continue to collect at home and where ever you may be. Keep a container or two with you at all times. You never know when you are going to a bug you need. This week we will do some night collecting. We will discuss in class exactly what day(s) we want to do this
