From an idyllic childhood in the Pacific Northwest of America, to raising a family in Alaska, then isolated for 15+ years in a Missouri Ozark ‘holler’ but now back home in the Pacific Northwest, winged creatures have always captivated my interest. God, birds and Lepidoptera keep me sane. This forum informs my curiosity and affords an opportunity to share my finds. I do the best I can with the tools at hand—please forgive the blur.
