ok so i know the bros are still their usual turtle selves in the actual brosquitos plot but like between ur mosquitello and intotheelliwoods' beetle saga leo (beetlenardo??) i feel like im just waiting for mikey and raph to get bugified.

like mikey with his spots would make an excellent ladybug of course, or maybe some sort of spotted butterfly?

raph hmm thats harder -- there are some really cool horned beetles of course but we dont want to infringe on leos territory.... maybe like a spiky sort of shield bug? also called stink bugs, which is perhaps appropriate for the boy with so many emotional stinks

yes yes you raise good points!

i think after i finish some of my current aus, they might just get a turn with the extra mutagen and curses.

as a treat.

Talk about an incredible journey. A rufous hummingbird — a western bird that is not even supposed to be on the East Coast — has returned to Terri and Doug Elvey’s feeders in Quarryville for the second time in 10 months. A birding expert estimates the 3-year-old female hummer, weighing little more than a penny, has flown 8,000 to 9,000 miles to breeding grounds in the Pacific Northwest and back since leaving the Elveys’ yard last Dec. 10. It had started dining there on Nov. 8 of last year. Now, there it was again Oct. 8, feeding contentedly at a hummingbird feeder filled with nectar made from sugar and water. “It just blows my mind,” Terri Elvey says. Scott Weidensaul, a well-known ornithologist and licensed bird bander from Schuylkill Haven, captured and banded the hummingbird at the Elveys’ home last November. When the Elveys reported the bird had returned against all odds, Weidensaul again captured the hummer. Still on its right leg was the silver band with the identification numbers J51249.
