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~Pumpkin Patch~October 26

This will be the last weekly NST until spring, unless, I have people showing interest to continue it.  I am considering it doing it monthly through the winter.   I just don’t see myself, or others, really being out in Nature enough to be about to post each week. This past Friday, we went to a…


Nature Study Tuesday~A Day at the Refuge October 19

This past weekend, we went to the nearby wildlife refuge for their annual celebration. First we went on the tram, the took us through an area of the refuge to the lookout tower over the marsh and wetlands. We learned that the marsh, is supposed to be naturally salty, but over the years has “freshed”…


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 28~ Large Moth

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 17~Linky is here.

Ok, as some of you may have noticed, I decided for obvious reasons not to make all my readers read my graphic horse injury post to find the linky.  Our nature study for a while will be our horse, unless we come upon something else.  However, due to the amount of time I am spending…
