Yesterday, I left off showing you the Milkweed Tussock Moth (Euchaetes egle) caterpillar. Fuzzy-wuzzy was he! Onwards, we go at the same stop. Bonobos and Chimps Appear to Have ‘Hello’ and ‘Goodbye’ Greetings Keep looking! The more you know, the more you see and the more you see, the more you know.

However the actual cricket is hard to find. Perfectly preserved cave lion cub found frozen in Siberia is 28,000 years old. Even its whiskers are intact….
What does an armadillo and a chicken have in common? In the same way, they both needed to get to the other side of the road LOL. See what just goofing around leads to: The Biophysicist Transforming Asparagus Into Medical Implants Keep looking!
Where did I find a movie star? Well, it is not famous yet, but with a face like it has, I think it truly must be its destiny! See what you think. After I put it back in a jar, it wrapped itself in a pokeberry leaf. Currently, it is now in a comfy jar…
