Welcome to Project Noah, Travis9, I hope you like the site as much we do; there are many features you can explore: I invite you to go to http://www.projectnoah.org/faq where you will find the purpose and “rules” of Project Noah. There is a blog http://blog.projectnoah.org/ where we post articles from spotters with special insight into different organisms. There are also the chats for help with identification, and to comment on your own and others’ spottings. Look at the global and local missions to put your spottings into:http://www.projectnoah.org/missions Enjoy yourself here, see you around!

It's moving slowly because its life is coming to an end. The winter season is upon us and this animal, like many other invertebrates, will not survive to see 2014. Its legacy will (hopefully) live on with its eggs, which will overwinter and hatch when it warms again in the spring. I saw several today so they're still hanging on.
