Here are some insects I have seen so far. The moths I took during the Rouge Valley Conservation Centre moth night, in which I was taxon leader. The dragonflies I took while leading various Ode counts throughout Ontario southern and central Ontario. Enjoy!

Happy birding.....saw my first Solitary Sandpiper today this year.

Very nice set!

Colorful indeed - what a great variety. Time to learn more about them - a lifer list for insects will be a great list, might reach a million one day.

Along the way you might need to spend a million too....on guide books! I have a large collection, just on insects alone. Good luck!

Awesome set! Insects are so much fun. Your Orange Bluet is actually an Eastern Forktail :)
