Dr. Long is now a researcher at UCLA working in conservation biology at the La Kretz Center for California Conservation Science. She has been a member of eButterfly\u2019s Scientific Advisory Panel and has contributed 55 checklists and recorded 125 species. She leads observations and checklists in both Arizona and California. \u00a0She also helps verify reported observations from California and the southwest USA.\u00a0 Please join us in thanking Elizabeth for all she brings to eButterfly and the broader butterfly community.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>We asked Elizabeth to tell us a bit more about herself and how she uses eButterfly. Here\u2019s what she wrote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy husband is an avid birder and he\u2019s been using eBird for years.\u00a0 I was really jealous of the functionality of eBird, so when eButterfly came on-line I couldn\u2019t wait to get started using it.\u00a0 I\u2019ve made it a part of my butterflying routine- after a day in the field, I sit down at the computer and enter my data into my eButterfly account.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s such an easy way to keep track of when and where I saw everything, and I love being able to get a spatial overview of where certain species are and the route covered by each transect.\u00a0 I\u2019m really looking forward to eButterfly attracting more users and accumulating more data, because I think one of the most powerful features is the ability to track phenology of certain species- when in the year they start flying, and how long they stay out.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m really lazy about photo documentation so I\u2019ve made a promise to myself to work on that this year.\u00a0\u00a0 eButterfly will give me a nice way to keep those photos organized and easy to access in the future. I can\u2019t wait to finally get a good photo series of pale swallowtails on my account!\u201c<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Elizabeth Long brought her passion for birds to butterflies during her graduate studies at UC Davis with Prof. Art Shapiro.
