I know I said the museum was not accepting specimens due to my impending departure, but it turns out the lifestyle I've designed for myself as a hunter is too deep in my blood to obey the bureaucracy. I broke the code; I captured a handful of dflies since I wrote about the moratorium. I'm sorry but I will not apologize for this.
In the post describing the stoppage of specimen acquisition I forgot to mention a caveat stating "rare and unprecedented specimens will be admitted." This was a standard clause I asked my lawyers to tell me to put in the blog even though I didn't intend to use it (I figured I'd be too busy getting ready for the move to hunt). However, I have admitted multiple specimens and not all the specimens I have recently brought to the museum have fallen under either exceptional category. Another dictum of recalcitrance...
