And I find myself lucky enough to be here at OxBow, on a lagoon and surrounding by large birch/pine covered dunes on the great Lake Michigan. The assignment: lead an intensive course on insects with a group of eleven wonderful/wanderfilled art students.
Out in dem thar woods on the Crow's Nest trail....
peering at a caterpillar that was crawling in the studio lab...
and taking in the translucent green majesty of some sort of silk moth caterpillar that a student in the printmaking lab, Maxx, brought to us. I believe it might be a Polyphemus...
and in the lagoon some "water scorpions" (Order: Hemiptera) were tooling about....
And here we all are working diligently to collect enough grasshoppers that we might be able to have a meal of them later in the week!
more to follow...
