I am a retired professor of biology (LSUS 30 Years) with major interests in nature photography, plant animal interactions and coevolution (especially insects, monarchs and milkweeds), the plant family Asclepiadaceae (Apocynaceae s.l.), ethnobotany, mammals, birds, and more.

If you are interested in purchasing images for textbook publication or obtaining copies for other non-profit educational projects please e-mail me at splynch0819@gmail.com. This Flickr site is for informative and educational purposes only, and for me to share the beauty I have seen in nature.
