The internet can be a great place to find a photo of a bug you've just seen, helping you put a name and identity to it. It's also a good way to get computer-obsessed kids more engaged in the natural world - although nothing beats the excitement of coming face to face with wildlife outdoors! Some sites allow the photos to be used for charitable and educational purposes (see each site for copyright restrictions).
