Well we’ve decided it was time to teach our children about the birds and the bees…..I know they are still kind of young. I even have pictures that we showed them, to help in their studies. Now before you get upset with me check out our pictures….

HA! Made you look! LOL!!
My hubby took both of these pictures. He was actually up close to that bumble bee. In the next picture check out the beautiful intricate design on the wings. Is there not a Designer?

We have been having a great time enjoying all of the wild life we have encountered lately. It’s always an adventure just to step out our door it seems. LOL!! The children recently found a nest of quail eggs in our front garden, they were recently laid and sadly a crow had found some of them. Regardless I took some pictures and wanted to share them with you.
Here is one the crow got to....sniff.

Quail eggs are a small to medium sized egg, with a tea stained white color to them and brown spots all over. (In case you ever come across a nest in the garden or by shrubs.)

Here’s a shot of the nest. I am afraid they have been abandoned. (Oh, just in case you were wondering…yes,... the children washed their hands! LOL!)

Here are two photos of a swallowtail in my pear tree in the back yard. The first one I took, was from inside my dining room behind the slider, the other one I went out and got under the tree and took the picture that way.


One more nature shot for you today…
