Pat C. Thomas of Duluth, Minnesota is tried and true advocate for invertebrate conservation. Not only has she been a dedicated Xerces member for almost 20 years, but Pat often gives talks in her local community to spread the word about the importance of protecting pollinators. Pat enjoys photographing all the amazing creatures she sees in her garden and when out on nature walks with her husband and adorable dog banjo. We can’t thank you enough, Pat!
