It's been a busy month, and a busy winter. I recently took on another job, which I really don't need, but it seemed like it would be interesting. It is. I am the Natural Science Program Coordinator for a local museum. You could call it a cat wrangler.
I'm going to expand my blog to include other areas instead of just doing photography, so take off your coat and stay a while.
Tonight I was looking around as I am want to do and found an interesting piece of jewelry over at Maxilla & Mandible, a store in New York. I had been there once and if you are ever in NYC, you should stop in a see it. Anyway, they have beetle bracelets and pendants. Pretty much, beetles in acrylic. In summer around here I usually have enough bugs and other forest detritus that having beetles in plastic just might look real weird. I'm not real sure what I think about it.
This summer is shaping up to be a busy one. Along with the nature programs , I will be doing a butterfly survey and participating in Mountain Birdwatch. And trying to keep hiking, (Baxter State Park, here I come!) And taking more photos.

This all sounds very cool. But I want to know more. What museum are you working with? I'd also like to know more about your butterfly survey. Where will you be doing it, and what methods will you be using? I'm the director of the Illinois Butterfly Monitoring Network, so I have a strong interest in this stuff.
Hi Doug, I am working for the Wilhelm Reich Museum, and back in 1989 they decided to have a Natural Science program, I took over this year. I'll be volunteering for the Maine Butterfly Survey, and I'll be watching Rangeley. I can email you more info.
