The Tupi people, one of the main ethnic groups of Brazilian indigenous people, believe in a male supernatural being called “Curupira” that guards the forest in Tupi mythology. I crowned this BLOG with his name because I aspire the BLOG, which deals with insects as part of the nature, to play a role just like Curupira who protects the forest from the destructive habits of man.

The Museum is deserted today. Well, it allows me a plenty of time to take a siesta. Its 9 oclock in the morning.
There are tiny white flowers in full blossom on a tree in a corner of the museum garden. But these flowers do not necessarily blossom out every year.
The tree is about 45 feet high and reached full blossom just a few days ago.
Flowers in full blossom, however, are destined to be out of bloom. So is human life. Thats natural providence.
The size of the cute flower is a little less than an inch, and its species name unknown.
