worms and such

it all started with the smallest earthworm in Russell Co. Virgnina



i heard her tell the worm above that he was a great friend and a lot of fun.  after a while i heard her laughing at the worm and when i asked her why she said it was b/c she had (insulted him by) calling it a beetle wheetle when he's really a WORM.


today she made a new friend.  a gypsy moth caterpillar.











******  caterpillar update.  i was wrong, this is not a gypsy moth .... i think it's an eastern web...  and it escaped the jaws of Rexy only to be "lost" in the house.  Mike, as supportive as he is, told Olivia not to worry bc he was certain it would show up (via crawling on my face) overnight.  Nice Mike.  no surprise i found him in the middle of the night (since i couldn't sleep anyway) trying to elude me by blending into the pattern of the carpet.  soooo day two with Catty the Caterpillar has begun.
