Botanical Gardens Field Trip

We started off our day with the torch!! (It's a reward for getting caught walking nicely in the halls by our principal!) Good job, kiddos!
We're waiting to start our tour of the Botanical Gardens and the Bug Exhibit.
Here's a picture of the dragonfly that was in the middle of the water.
Look @ the huge ant!!! And the gigantic spider web! We learned that spider webs like this one (that look perfect) are usually woven by spiders that are harmless. It's the messy, dangling spider webs that are usually home to the really dangerous spiders...you learn something new every day! We did decide that we would stay away from ALL spiders, regardless of how pretty their webs are!
