New Zealand Invades!

Yes indeedy, the New Zealand mudsnails (Potamopyrgus antipodarum) have come to Colorado. They've been sighted in Boulder creek. Apparently instead of being a delicate creature, like many native creatures from islands, it is quite invasive and is pushing out the native snails of the West. Of course the wildlife managers are all worried and upset, though apparently there isn't much to be done. Hopefully some native wee beastie will adapt to eating them eventually.

So What Do You Think?

So I've updated my "scruffy" picture. I thought I'd do this since my scruff will be going away shortly and it is fun to take pictures. I'm still at 13 out of 15 user pictures since I got rid of the old scruffy picture. I need a new one of myself smiling and I plan on replacing my thoughtful picture.

And now I'm not scruffy. In preperation for tomorrow.
