SUMMER CAMP 2010
A working Dad stops by camp during his lunch break to share a rare moment with his two sons actively classifying the insects in their collection.
Learning how to correctly “hand capture” a butterfly without hurting it.
Learning a few “tricks” to keep a butterfly happy enough to stay on your finger.
Learning “who stings” and “who doesn’t sting!!”......”who bites” and “who doesn’t bite”....and just having fun holding all sorts of new creatures!!
Learning about how some insects defend themselves.
Friendly insect “teenagers”--check out those tiny wings!
Locating the “singing” parts of insects....learning that beetles also make noise!!
Holding predatory insects and feeling their strength!
Amazingly ugly babies who shed their skins.....learning to
recognize the beautiful adults...
Baby insects...relaxed and curious....
Alas....someone’s insect collection!!
Learn about bugs you CAN eat!
Yes, that’s my goofy husband and NO, he isn’t really eating the caterpillar!
Now 17, my son would kill me if he knew I showed you this picture....however, we have always had a buggy house!
