March 31 Atlas Insecta Obscura

When you were a kid, did you collect bugs? For some it can turn into an obsession, which is great for inspiring the next generation of bug collectors. In the great English traveler tradition of collecting, Don Ehlens brings his bug collection to Portland for an Insect Safari and will guide you through it.

Ehlens started collecting bugs at age 5. He studied entomology in college and keeps up active collecting. In some ways this falls into the "keep Portland weird" category, but really science is not weird.
