Kayla, Joshua and I have created a bug hunting ritual into our summer daily lives. When weather permits, not rainning or too hot, we take a little walk on our farm or to "Larry's Lane" to look for bugs. We sometimes also find interesting creatures in our herb garden. Our rule is simple: If it looks scary, (like a spider, or something that we don't recognize) leave it where you find it. I always bring my camera and document our findings so we can remember what we saw.
-----------------------------------------
This blog is to showcase our findings, some whom we left in nature, some whom made it to our bug catcher for a short trip home and release later at the end of the day, lastly some whom we kept a little longer for observation. No animals are purposely harmed during this adventure, occasionally just a little smoothered by Joshua and we try our best to return every creature to their home just as we found them.

Look Up

We always walking with our heads down looking for bugs on the ground. One day, I thought I should look up and maybe I'll find something interesting under the leaves on the tree. Well, we found something better, a butterfly on a tree trunk. It was quite up high and I just stretched my arm as high as I can reach and took some pictures. Lucky shots and I think our butterfly was surprised too.
