Nature Study Tuesday~Sept. 6~Tomato Horn Worm Moth

  Welcome to our Nature Study Tuesday.  I no longer do these every Tuesday, but we do them around monthly. A week or so ago, my son found a pupa, I couldn’t get my camera close enough to get a picture that you could see.  However, my son was out side constantly watching it every…

Nature Study Tuesday~March 1

Welcome back to Nature Study Tuesday.  We took a break over the coldest months of the winter, but now it is warming up and time to get back outside and enjoy God’s creation. Over the winter our oldest Philip, AKA Nature Boy, fed an opossum in our garage.  This opossum has been lose and able…

Nature Study Tuesday~October 5~Apple Orchard

I am sorry I am getting this up late.  Our four year old most likely broke his arm Saturday, and I have been running. He has an ortho appointment tomorrow, so we should know for sure by then. Friday we went to an Apple Orchard for a field trip.  It is a beautiful place to…

Nature Study Tuesday~ September 21~On or Off the Fence…

Once again our oldest was working with dad near Quivera Wildlife Refuge, when he found three Eastern Fence Lizards.  These are the neatest little creatures, and they are really cute in a scaly kind of a way.  They are so fun to watch.  They bob their heads, race around and the tiny one will crawl…

Nature Study Tuesday ~ September 14 ~ Family Zoo Trip

Our family does not go to the zoo all that often, or at least the big zoo.  We go to the smaller zoo about two times a year.  This was the year we went to the big one though.  We saw so many creatures from God’s creation, and you know, every single one is beautiful…

Nature Study Tuesday~August 31~Bull Snake, Giant Toad, Mushrooms, and more…

One of Philip’s goals this summer was to catch a bull snake, and catch a bull snake he did. This was not one of those cuddly snakes, notice the gloves?  This thing decided to strike at me as I was walking by.  Yeah, umm, I didn’t handle this one.  He found it outside of his…

Nature Study Tuesday~August 24~Healing, teeny Tiny Snake.

As I posted yesterday, life is a bit busy here. Getting back to normal school hours, taking care of Stormy and canning are taking priority right now, so, my memes will be up, just maybe not when they have been. Just come link up when you can though. Stormy our horse who was injured just…

Nature Study Tuesday~August 10~The one where it is TOOOOOO HOT !!

Yes, I did shout that.  It has been near or over 100 degrees for days.  My green beans are burning up despite watering nearly ever day.  It is just plain toooooo HOT.  There has been one day in the last week that it hit 113. I have been able to get some beans from our…

Nature Study Tuesday August 3~The one where it was toooooo HOT.

Yep, it has literally been tooo hot out side to really enjoy nature.  Seriously, it is almost 7 pm right now and still 109 outside.   One item we have enjoyed is a horse that was brought onto the farm. Yeah, isn’t he purty?  We think so too, and since we are helping care for him…
