And I can also relate very well to looking out the classroom window and wishing I could be outside playing.<BR/>I am learning lots from you about insects. This is an area that I have not thought about before. Plants, flowers, trees, animals, but not insects. I look forward to learning more.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14788733654505792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6731821301433751344.post-3623856350823723462008-06-30T06:43:00.000+01:002008-06-30T06:43:00.000+01:00Hi Baker it is a good damselfly, I like it very mu...Hi Baker it is a good damselfly, I like it very much....Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14802468583972118464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6731821301433751344.post-40557358761145958752008-06-30T06:42:00.000+01:002008-06-30T06:42:00.000+01:00Dear Sherry....I to have cultivated and wild, I pr...Dear Sherry....I to have cultivated and wild, I prefer the wild side of the garden.

I can totally understand your love for wildlife and the discovery of it at an early age. My most favorite thing to do was to be in the wide open spaces and still is... just get me outside and everything will be all right. I even blog and read blogs sitting outdoors as often as possible... just love to be here where I can see and hear all the birding/butterflies/squirrels activity... well right now (at night) it is the frogs and crickets.<BR/><BR/>Meems @Hoe&ShovelMeemshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16341998120938921741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6731821301433751344.post-1106584518806024432008-06-29T02:47:00.000+01:002008-06-29T02:47:00.000+01:00Dragonflies and bumblebees in your last two posts!...Dragonflies and bumblebees in your last two posts!
