Metamorphosis


Barry went on a hike one day in May near Mountain Home and found hundreds of little caterpillars. The kids were really excited when he took them to go find some to bring back home. The kids couldn't catch the caterpillars because they were on stinging nettle, but they still thought it was pretty cool. They each had quite a few in their jars.




This is a picture of Quinton throwing a tantrum when it was time to leave. I had the camera handy and just couldn't resist. 


A few days later, the caterpillars made their cocoons all over the jar.


Here they are as butterflies!
