Ciao tutti! We had a request for photos of bugs in our backyard. Because the Net is an entomologist in training, we are constantly seeing bugs of one sort or another. In addition to insects, we see toads, snakes, field mice, Osprey, moles, woodpeckers, bluejays, ravens, great herons and most recently crawdads. That's right, Louisiana exported the little buggers to Italy a number of years ago and we have living proof (see below). We hope you enjoy the photos. I'm pretty sure he took all these pictures. He spent one day on his belly for two hours waiting to get a good shot of a lizard looking at a butterfly (see below). That's dedication for your. A presto!
