Urechis caupo, a weird looking non-segmented Marine Worm that looks strangely familiar. In some parts of the world, like South Korea, they're a delicacy!

I am finally working on a new Nature's Wonders model. As with my last few NW products, I'll be keeping the project under wraps until I'm pretty close to release (which I'm guessing will be late February).

I've seen it and its awesome!!

Have you possibly ever thought about whether you might included Bats in your "Nature Wonders" series? There are so many species from the horseshoe bat to the vampire . . . and they still fly. Maybe a SBRM-model could be work as a base. This is still a suggestion.

I did consider doing bats and even started a very rough model... the mistake I made was making the "idea" public. I won't accuse anyone of using my NW thread for their inspiration, but since then I don't talk about my NW projects until they are close to release. Will I ever do a bat? Maybe someday I'll pick up that wip bat model again.

I am currently working on a Nature's Wonders model that I put aside in February to get my Audubon Birthday Sale items done. I'm guessing it will be close enough to show in early July,

I thought I'd share a little real world Nature's Wonders. Over the last 6 weeks we've been inundated with Painted Lady butterflies... literally thousands every day. This last weekend was no exception. With our almost entirely native Californian garden, there's a huge attraction to our yard (only 10% of native insects are only attracted to non-native plants) .

Here's some photos of Painted Ladies on our native golden currants (and yes, those flowers will turn into delicious currant berries).
