The first ten galleries are a documentation of wildlife found in my yard in Bartlesville, Oklahoma starting February 2005.
Starting in 2013 the home is in Santee, CA near Santee Lakes with a yard backing onto an open hillside field.
The Bartlesville yard extended into a floodplain and included a pond - in a transition area between the southern Flint Hills and southern tallgrass prairie.

There are many unidentified species and surely misidentifications. I'll provide the much higher resolution original files for educational purposes. Example
Some photos have been requested for use in books and publications - making the hobby more worthwhile, including the Tulsa World newspaper TW1 and TW2 ,
Outdoor Oklahoma (Nov/Dec, 2007 and 2008), Wildside , Dragonflies and Damselflies of Northeastern Oklahoma , Oklahoma Biological Survey Vol. 10 No. 1 ,
three photos in Owlet Caterpillars of Eastern North America , fifteen photos in Peterson Field Guide to Moths of Northeastern North America ,
and upcoming books on organic gardening, beekeeping and in several regional domestic, forestry and agricultural brochures.
The robotics photo (below) will be in a book on college algebra. Also, this pic in the multi-lingual 2010 International Lions Club environmental theme wall calendar: STFC .
A major activity from 2008 until 2012 was participation in the DNA Barcode of Life for moths: DNA , iBOL , BARCODE Bulletin and iBOL Blog
