		<description><![CDATA[This one abruptly appeared in the house on August 14, 2011 (Sandy said she saw it come in through the front door with her, but wasn&#8217;t able to catch it). It finally settled down on the kitchen window for photographs. This is clearly a Phantom Crane Fly, Bittacomorpha clavipes. There is nothing else quite like [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a small (body about 5 mm long) crane fly that came to our porch light on July 4, 2011. This one caught my eye because of its almost emerald green color, which is pretty unusual for a crane fly, After searching around, it looks like there is only one local species of crane fly [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sam caught this for me on August 8. I think she said it was on the outside of a window trying to get in. Anyway, it is a very large, striking crane fly with a wingspan of well over an inch. It&#8217;s unfortunately missing half of its legs, but that&#8217;s just the way things go [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At least, I think it&#8217;s a winter crane fly. Here&#8217;s another one from early May of 2007. It was hanging out on our window, and I was able to get a couple of shots in-place before it flew off. It resembles a mosquito, but it is a bit bigger (the body was about a centimeter [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, K T Cat raised some good questions about the digestive system of insects, gnats in particular, so today I thought it would be good to talk about that. To start with, we need an example[1], so here is one: a larva that we found in Cole&#8217;s Creek in April: To be honest, when we [...]]]></description>
