Occurrence Remarks: Elizabeth and I had the most wonderful time at the Big Bend Nature Fest (http://www.bigbendnaturefest.com/). These observations were made during the "blacklighting event" led by Chuck Sexton and John Abbott. We were swarmed by all sorts of cool new bugs -- it was super exciting. I'll be working on ID's for lots of these later on, but I did want to upload them first. I'll use a lot of bugguide, moth photograph group, and the discover life moth guide to narrow down ID's. Although, if you do know some, I'd not turn down any guidance! :) Special note: blacklighting is prohibited in Big Bend National Park -- a permit was required for this event to take place.
Establishment Means: wild
