thanks for the links ewest,
you are right, he has really good info on bluegill. I almost forgot about the article in the previous issue. It is amazing how nature works. I wonder what the triggering mechanisms are for a male to take on female coloration - or even camouflage cocoration. I doubt they have the capacity to make a conscious decision, so it must be encoded in their genetics.
But this last article I could really sink my shovel into, and make constructive changes to my pond.
