A good shot of the Juglans nigra (Black Walnut) collected this morning (Saturday- 08/29/09) in my side yard. Two caterpillars, 1000 leaves, 32.9 N, 89.9 W, bagged and ready to be reared out in the classroom zoo.
Lashunda's cotelydons came up - can you identify?
Then there was the sexing our bearded dragon - Benita or Benny?
Quaneckqua brings Mo Jo the hamster to add to our classroom zoo.
Ms. C. sent this over by Coach Wilder. Can you identify?
Thanks to MIke Thomas, a new friend from the Earthwatch Expedititon
who works at the Connecticut Agricultural Field Station, the bug has been
identified as a longhorned beetle, Eburia quadrigeminata.

Thanks for telling me your site was up and running.I enjoyed reading your
editorials. Black Widow Spider was
interesting but a bit scary for a
pet. Seems like I remember you and
Packy having a pet frog. You and Packy treated the frogs leg and it healed and hopped off.

Indeed pop. Packy helped teach me the love of animals and plants - caring for this earth now extends to caterpillars and beyond.
