Outdoor Hour Challenge - Autumn Series #1 - Nature Journals
We spent our outdoor time in our yard looking at all sorts of different things:
Black Widow web
Under rocks - worms, roly polys, roots
Centipede
Leaves changing
Sunflowers - we discussed the birds who have been coming to eat the seeds
Later in the day we saw several House Finches eating from the sunflowers - sorry the picture isn't very good.
It was a cloudy day so the Evening Primroses were open.
Deer tracks
When we went inside I had my older two kids pick something they wanted to learn more about. N wanted to learn the ins-and-outs of how silk/web is made. We found some great information and pictures in one of our bug books.
N's journal page-
A wanted to know more about what venom is and how it is made. The same bug book was a great resource, and he also decided to read about several different spider species.
