More Wildlife

The area around the Visitor Center has lots of wildlife.  Another bat on Friday was caught and released.  Out on the observation bay there was a Praying Mantis--


Its the biggest one I have ever seen, about 5" long.  I used my ring for a size reference.  You can read about them here

Its a long weekend and I hope to get some sewing done.   What sort of plans do you have?

Impressive Praying Mantis!

I've got plans to dive into my 2.5 inch scrap bin and make some blocks for a Simple Simon quilt.

Have a great weekend! Mine will be quiet, I'm sure. The kids and grandkids are all up at the river camping & boating, sitting around the fire & drinking beer, I'm sure. It's what they live for in the summer.

Hope you have a great weekend. We spent today with 3 grandkids at the zoo, and then took another to the Kirby Science Center and out for ice cream. Tomorrow is a family dinner with some cousins of Dave's who are visiting from out of state. Hope to golf and sew on Monday!
