The Mulberry Wing
The Jamaica Bay Moth Research Center is finally ready. Okay, I'm the only one that calls it that. It's actually the new visitor center at the Wildlife Refuge and it's not quite open yet. But the construction fence did come down, allowing me to blacklight there for the first time in four years. To celebrate my return August 3, a new record was furnished for the overall Jamaica Bay survey in the form of this Morning-Glory Prominent (Schizura ipomoeae).
