Massachusetts Butterfly Club Annual Meeting (11/4)

Saturday night was the annual meeting of the Massachusetts Butterfly Club. After a nice potluck dinner with some great people, we heard a presentation by UMass-Boston Professor Robert Stevenson.

Professor Stevenson split his talk on two subjects. The first half was on his research of the butterflies of Costa Rica. The second was on his efforts to create software for creating field guides. The idea was pretty cool. It would allow anyone to make a quick field guide to their specialty, whether its the butterflies of MA or restaurantes in Las Vegas. You can learn more about the effort on the Electronic Field Guide web site.

The best part was that after the talk was over the club members got to show their best pictures from the past year. I presented a few of mine and I got a lot of positive comments.
