Extract

Beetle collectors are lucky. Weather permitting, they can hunt almost the year through, for many species of Coleoptera hibernate as adults. When snows are deep our treasure houses are old stumps, and dead trees with the bark still on but loose. Better yet are November days when early frosts have sent the lakeshore forms to shelter, and every driftwood log is home to a dozen species.
