The hotel itself looks sort of like a castle, with a huge tower made of stone walls…
Raising Butterflies (Egg to Caterpillars)
Caterpillars only do two things- they eat and poop, a lot. As they eat they grow bigger and need new skin so they molt (shed their skin) and they sometimes change colors after molting.

The turtle started climbing up into the area where my glove compartment is located. I pulled over again, grabbed an old sweatshirt from my trunk…
Frog Blog
At first we tried to catch some turtles but every time they saw us coming they scurried into the water. Next we made a couple of attempts to catch a frog but they all jumped away from us. Until finally the Frog Wrangler (AKA me) caught a frog rather easily. I did it with a butterfly net.
My First Bald Eagle
Bird watchers have an expression called “king bird”. A “king bird” is sorta like a first kiss. The first kiss is the one that gets you interested in boys and a “king bird” is the bird that gets you interested in bird watching. The Red-tailed hawk became my “King Bird”.
