Bug Hunt!

Earlier this week we went over to Vanessa's house for a bug hunt. Vanessa is really into nature- something I am not, so we are grateful to have her for this part of science!

I stayed away as much as possible but we did look through Vanessa's bug books to identify the bugs she caught with them.

Checking out an egg in Vanessa's yard- possibly a snake egg.

An absolutely disgusting long worm trying to slither out of the carton

Thanks for having us over for the bug hunt Vanessa!
