It's a cavalcade of cavorting caribou. Some ideas for a book a friend and I are kicking around.

New antlions

Antlion kid A swarm of new antlion illustrations are up at antlionden.com.

If you`re looking for an insect gift for a nature-loving friend, I highly suggest antlions!  This company has been around for several years now, and is a joy to work with.
