There seem to be too many plants and animals for me to memorize and learn.  I lack knowledge of entire groups of organisms – from what they are, to their ecological roles.  I won’t even mention organisms in Domains, such as Eubacteria (although I just mentioned it…), but insects and plants are phenomenally diverse, even in Ohio, and I am overwhelmed with it… I need more time – well, that, and a bit of patience to actually look at the insects and plants.  Little by little, I’m getting it, but in the mean time, I watch butterflies mate.
