Identifying other things.

[Beth Mantle <>]

Hi Bron and Margaret,

I'm a macro enthusiast and honorary entomologist (due to my role at the Australian National Insect Collection) and would be super keen to see a special interest group evolve.

My invertebrate Flickr photos are at http://www.flickr.com/photos/froggybeth/collections/72157625336330790/

It will be possible to set up community groups through the Atlas of Living Australia portal (www.ala.org.au) - this might be a nice option for ACT insect and arthropod enthusiasts.

Cheers,

Beth

Hi Margaret,

My main photographic interest is in arthropods too, so I agree - perhaps we should start one? :-)

At the moment I upload to Flickr where I've had excellent help - especially in the Spiders of Australia group http://www.flickr.com/groups/australianspiders/pool/with/4915034125/which is visited regularly by very
knowledgeable people. I've found spiders not discovered before here in middle Melba!

It's possible there to create sets http://www.flickr.com/photos/bronking/sets/ and post photos to the
Field Guide to Insects of Australia http://www.flickr.com/groups/oz_insects/ again, photos are identified
during conversations with other interested photographers. And that's just the beginning of the many thousands
of groups/set/galleries to explore.

While you're there, visit Australian Birds http://www.flickr.com/groups/australianbirds/ !

Also I'm happy to have chats re insects off this chat line. If you have a mysterious creature
there's a chance I've had it too so we could compare notes.

cheers,

Bron King

I see many unusual insects and spiders in my rambling on our nature reserves.  I don’t believe I should keep putting photos of them on this chatline.  Does anyone know of a similar group to COG that is interested primarily in insects etc to whom I could send photos for identification? 
Thank you
Margaret Leggoe
