<p>Hi Don,</p>
<p> Thanks for the link. The card looks very useful and it's
laminated - something often not in cluded in this style of
field guide. The photos appear clear and info on the card are
easy to read and understand. It even treats Cape Breton as a
seperate region, something rarely done in field guides. For
$13 it's a steal.</p>
<p> The website itself is even more useful. It's the best
field guide for butterflies in this region I've seen. The
thumbnails are organized by family and the species photos show
images of both sexes and wing positions. There's also a link,
on each species page, to the 'Butterflies of Canada' for
further info. </p>
<p> There are a few suggestions I'd make as additional
improvements to the website species pages. A Peterson style
arrow system with the photos would be helpful. Also showing
the species info (habitat, range, flight season, host plants
etc.) and photos of the eggs, caterpillers, pupa of the
species shown on the species page rather than just a link.
These are just ideas and even as is this is one of the best
Lepidoptera sites I've seen. All the best.</p>
