Bugs and I sure learned a lot during this process. The hows and whys on the indentification and pinning of bugs is enough to give anyone a migraine!
For example, did you know that there is a June Bug and a May Beetle?
May Bug
June Beetle
I had no clue there was a difference, but I do now. And so does Bugs.
And did you know how easy it is to break off an antennae.
I do now. And so does Bugs. (Let's just say, he's not going to let me forget it anytime soon.)
But through it all, Bugs prevailed and his project was finished. He earned a blue ribbon on it and eventually garnered a blue honor and reserve division champion! Yeah Bugs!
Now it's time to start collecting for next year.....he only needs 20 bugs. Think I have enough in my freezer? Ummmmm, never mind, I don't want to show you my freezer......then you might now come over for supper.
With Love from the house with creepy crawlies in the frig!!
That is a neat 4-H project. Wonder if it's his first year? You both took a lot time and effort and it paid off!
