[Marty Swanhall]

Thanks, Diane:

I have not been on a fieldtrip yet and I plan on joining this week (that is, sending in membership dues).

Yes!  We're all about catch and release :-)  Have you ever been on a CBA field trip?  There's usually at least one person with a net, catching butterflies and putting them into a clear CD case or other container, so that they can be passed around, examined, and identified.  Of course, then you have people like Lenny Brown who ID them just from how they're flying...

I am wondering how so many of you can ID the butterflies that seem to me fly so quickly and show so little!

Do any of you ‘catch’ them and then ID them and then release them unharmed?
