For the Love of Rats

Haha sure! I move things around a lot so some of these are just different arrangements of the same insects :) Some of these I bought but most I caught either here in MD, in Colorado, Belize, or Thailand. I started out collecting for a class but now it’s kind of turned into an artsy thing so now most of them don’t have labels or anything.

This is just skimming the surface of what I have but I can only upload 10 pictures lol

#1: Some of my butterflies- I have a lot more- not all of them are in my apartment so I can’t take pictures of all of them now :/ I have almost 60 in total
#2: My original collection for my entomology class
#3: Beetles- I bought all of these in a box and then took them out and re-arranged them
#4: My original butterflies- I’ve taken this apart now but I really liked the arrangement
#5: Male and female Luna Moths
#6: Paradise Phantom- this is one of my favorites because it has transparent wings
#7: Pearl Crescent and Common Whitetail Dragonfly
#8: Unidentified little blue. I’m not skilled enough to classify these you have to look at their genitals I think
#9: Eastern Pondhawk

I mostly have butterflies and dragonflies because I only have a sweep net but I do have cicadas, grasshoppers, katydids, beetles, etc. etc. as well!

Sorry to everyone who didn’t want to see a bunch of insects on their dash :P
