The Interactive
Frog Dissection
Only useful with graphical browsers. No substitute for the real thing,
but a good companion to a real dissection. Involves running QuickTime movies,
which means non-Mac folk are out of the film loop. Runs pretty slow, even
with a 28,800 modem (8 minutes for one QT film)

Interactive Taxonomists Database
The Expert Center for Taxonomic Identification (ETI) is a UNESCO-associated non-profit foundation dedicated to improving on a global scale the quantity, quality and accessibility of taxonomic information.
Blooming wildflowers, migrating birds, spawning fish, flashing fireflies, thunderstorms, falling leaves, harvest moons, rutting deer, frozen ponds, birth and death are all part of the cycles of life that we experience each year. Keeping track of cyclical events like these from year to year (which in a large part is what phenology is about) can be both entertaining and educational for young and old alike.
