Hi Bill,

I just emailed Dawn that Idie Ulsh has started an email butterfly forum and
also told her of Washington Butterfly association
Website at

http://www.naba.org/chapters/nabaws/index.htm

On our field trips, collecting is not permitted?strictly catch and releast
as well as photo/videography. Not sure where you are located. We have
monthly meetings (1st Wednesdays) at Center for Urban Horticulture, U of
Washington, Seattle as well as field trips during the summer (pretty well
spoiled by rainy weekends so far this year).

We seem to have common interests, I chased/collected butterflies as a
youngster, now take a lot of bird/butterfly and other critter video.
