Life isn't black and white. It's a million gray areas, don't you find? - Ridley Scott
This blog will act as an attempt to chronicle what is sure to be one of the most ridiculously confusing, interesting and wild years I've ever experienced.

By compiling a series of 365 black and white photos and accompanied text you're invited to follow along the ride of an undergraduate student with severe biophilia. This year will mark a year that I leave the continent, graduate from my Bachelors degree, start graduate studies, try to make heads and tails of life and and search for an elusive tiger beetle.

Feel free to post feedback, ask questions, and give suggestions. Hope that your 2013 is looking to be a wonderful, wonderful year.

52. Thripidae

I am taking an independent course which lands me in the horticultural building on campus each Thursday morning. I always make a point to take a few minutes wandering the greenhouse, and looking at the plants. Trying to learn a few scientific names, saying 'Hello' to the red-eared sliders, the normal things. There were some beautiful tulips in bloom, and one was highly infested in thrips. So I took a very 'typical' picture of the little insects running around the bell-shaped flower.

Can you see the little critters?
