Digging the old vege patch


We started digging the old vege patch today, as it might well become our temporary sandpit while the new classroom is being built. We hoped it might yield a few interesting bugs as we dug...

Hiding in the old vege patch...


Today's downpours have provided us with bugs appearing from the undergrowth, and also from the soil in the old vege patch: snails, worms, slaters, a caterpillar, ants, a click beetle... We were lucky to have most of the afternoon rain-free, as it really poured just after school!
