Comments on: About http://beetlesinthebush.wordpress.com Experiences and reflections of a Missouri entomologist Mon, 07 Dec 2009 18:07:45 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: MObugs41 http://beetlesinthebush.wordpress.com/about/#comment-562 MObugs41 Sun, 01 Mar 2009 20:09:07 +0000 #comment-562 I just stumbled upon your blog, and I have enjoyed reading through it and discovering another bug lover in Missouri. I noticed you worked for the Missouri Department Of Ag.....do you know Lee Burgess? He is helping me with a project I have been working on for the past 4 years. He has agreed to proof read an insect field guide I have nearly completed. I have not had the pleasure of meeting him in person but he is a very gracious and kind person via the phone and email conversations we have had. I would love to learn more about your field studies. My husband and I are farmers in NWMO and know full well the impact of insects on agriculture, and I know the importance of alternatives to harsh chemicals. I too have a fascination with beetles as well as flies. I spend a huge amount of time photographing them and observing them.

I try to do what I can to make bugs interesting. I'm not aware of too many entomoblogs, but I guess I'll have to check out your blogroll as well as bug girl's. I added you to my blogroll, by the way.

I am really happy that I stumbled onto it via the Nature Blog Network. I'm a bit of a bug geek myself, albeit only in a fumbling amateur way. Anyhow, your pictures are fantastic and your information is thorough. I have been attempting to identify the insects I come across and I am having trouble with one image of what I believe to be some kind of tortoise beetle, but I am positively stumped on what one. If you have a minute - please ping me back. I'd love the opportunity to send you the pic and get some feedback from an expert! Happy end of '08 and good morning, as well. Super fantastic blog!
