Of Bugs and Beetles...

So far, my professional life has been encompassed by exhausting tension filled days grinding out and capturing a few bugs a day, and the occasional beetle. And then there are always those periods where you are in the zone and you catch so many bugs at a consistent rate daily, and the occasional beetle. And then one day, the jar breaks before you bring it to the bug counter and a shitload of bugs and beetles fall out all at once. Never a good feeling, but one that you have to be able to stomach when it happens, and better yet, know when statistical outliers start crawling back towards the mean. And even better yet, start catching beetles consistently. Which I will do.
