Bess beetles, patent leather beetles, etc. Usually sell on the 'net for $4-5 dollars. Each.

Good heavens, seriously?? You know a while ago I saw black widow spiders advertised somewhere for like $20 a piece!!!! I think I inadvertently squooshed at least $80 worth here while clearing out some old wood this weekend, lol!! I'm sitting on a goldmine of creepy crawlies here and never knew it... lol

Oh, and grow little froggies, grow...

Molly and I went 'on safari' today..... Molly found a tiny Smooth Newt. (Triturus vulgaris).

[Stefan-A]

Nice.

It's Lissotriton vulgaris these days.

All these name changes: I really don´t like to know about it
When I see those frog eggs I remember thats time for a walk in the park again.

I'll get an update up in a few seconds...They have transformed quite a bit since the last photo.

James, Molly looks so sweet.....and the newt too.

This one was a surprise find last Friday. Pseudemys concinna- River Cooter.

Still a little early for turtles here, so it was a fun find.
