I found this paper from 1946 about Entomology as a Career (sorry the picture is so small, it is readable if you click on it!). It states that "the present day entomologist is a far cry from the much-cartooned, bespectacled patriarch chasing butterflies" Hmm.... the patriarch part may have changed but the running around with a net part remains the same!
Chasing butterflies is what got me started in entomology! It's a very important practice :)
ReplyDeleteChasing butterflies, chasing dreams....it's all good....
