Oh, no worries, the location has ...Dear Ento Mike,<br /><br />Oh, no worries, the location has been emailed to KU. We know the drill. 1-888-TAGGING.<br /><br />Even so, the monarch tag is meaningful. It says a lot about humans, about etymologists, about adhesive technologies, about bias in studies (this critter was unusually comfortable around humans).<br /><br />It made us wonder about energy costs to the butterfly, about balance about mass.<br /><br />And since we are surrounded by butterflies here this time of year--sometimes seeing hundreds in an hour--finding ol' PBB 518 an hour later tells me that at least one monarch butterfly has a tendency to hang around zinnias for at least an hour, and that the zinnias must be reasonably tasty when its usual sources of food are all over the place here.<br /><br />(We're talking North Cape May. We got almost as many butterflies as we do mosquitoes this time of year.)doylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12901661320505882735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4956989639073843954.post-24904221746891322872011-10-10T00:05:11.780-04:002011-10-10T00:05:11.780-04:00The location is required for your monarch tag to b...The location is required for your monarch tag to be meaningful...Ento Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10286308969746167100noreply@blogger.com
