urbpanAnd they love bugs! (and other stuff)
My brother's children visited New England this summer, from Las Vegas.
Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches are old hat!
The whole family held the corn snake.
Then we went out to the crop fields--what are they picking?
Potato beetles!
When they came to my neighborhood, Duncan found a really big gypsy moth caterpillar!
Frankie liked it too.
They seemed to have a knack for finding big insects! You don't usually see big beetles like this in Boston!
Duncan worked hard at extricating a dinosaur from this pink rock, sawing away until the rock turned to dust.
See?
Ever-ready to discover nature in unusual places, they locate an insect in the aisle of Target!
They even found a rare Lorax, in Springfield, Massachusetts.

Re: Damn! those are some photogenic kids
Date: 2005-07-27 10:44 am (UTC)I've got a bunch more pictures--too many to post--from Doc's disc and my camera. You saw the aquarium ones a few posts back?
Duncan and Frankie were a tremendous joy to have around. I hope Alexis and I can see them again very soon.
