Caterpillars

A few Saturdays ago Connor and I went out to the desert to learn more about insects at the SASI (Sonoran Anthropod Studies Institute) within the Sahuaro National Forest. They had a display of caterpillars. We talked about one of his favorite books, The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle. Connor enjoyed seeing live caterpillars upclose. He was amazed.


This is the such a colorful pretty butterfly.


Another one, red with black legs. Very stunning as well.

Connor enjoyed coloring various bug pictures and coloring sheets too.
