Winging it


Ah, wings.  Do I mean Buffalo wings?  No.  The 70's prog rock band The Wings  headed up by (the just re-married)  Paul McCartney?  No again.  Obviously I am talking about the most interesting kind of wings there are - insect wings. 

In considering whether I should renew my subscription to WIRED magazine I came across this small slideshow of insect wings that is also a nice and brief guided tour of their function and evolution! Check it out.
