What's That Bug??

Whatsthatbug.com is very appropriate for this year's Summer Reading Program at Pamunkey Regional Library.

When not online, Whatsthatbug is in the garden researching your bug questions.

People from all over the world send in photos of insects they can't identify, and these guys explain what it is, where it can be found, if it's dangerous, etc. There are a lot of creepy crawlies here, so if bugs give you the willies, don't visit this site. Otherwise, come on in!
