Things you didn’t know you didn’t know

One of the great things about learning about nature is meeting really interesting people. I  knew the name Ted MacRae from our nature study group and found his blog, Beetles in the Bush. It challenged me to learn about creatures I had never even noticed before, especially those beautiful tiger beetles! It’s always great to learn things you didn’t know that you didn’t know. Later I met Ted in person and found that he was not only a great  entomologist and writer, but also a friend. His invitation to write a post on Beetles in the Bush was intriguing. I enjoyed writing “Dogbane for Dinner” so much, I started “Gardening with Binoculars.” Thanks, Ted!
