Early morning Lady Bug catching...
The weather has been very hot the last few days - around 28c.....so we have been out and about eraly this morning before it got too hot to play in the sun!! Sam and Abigail Enjoyed the sand box, trampoline and climbing frame BEFORE settling down to their studies!!! It worked out quite well actually because it gave me a chance to get dinner in the crockpot, tidy up and get other chores done and have everything organized and tidied up and they had a little less bouncy energy ready for when it was time to sit down and get started!!
they came inside thrilled to have found a lady bug and soon found a jar to put it in. They studied it for a while before letting it go on it's way.
A few weeks ago we found another fascinating bug - a Burying beetle!! To find out more about this AMAZING beetle, you can read about it on our family blog here: escapingthecity.blogspot.com/2009/09/burying-beetles.html
