My Diptera observations (and other living forms) can be found here, and corrections or comments over there would also be appreciated.

Thank you, Lorin. I hope that you have a great year too! Smile

I hope that you can find some rare and interesting arthropods.

I have an operation in ten days to repair my shoulder. If all goes well, then i will be able to photograph again in 2020. So this is all ready a better year for me Smile

Best wishes,
John
