Quail Botanical Gardens & Bug Exhibit

Last weekend Mark took the kids to a bug exhibit at Quail Botanical Gardens. They were disappointed that there weren't too many bugs they could hold and that decided Mom probably wouldn't approve of purchasing a Madagascar hissing cockroach! Connor did bring home information on what a great pet Bearded Dragon lizards are and is lobbying to add one to our life after he returns from camp. We will see!
Here Connor is holding a "walking stick" bug on his hand...how can you not think of the "Bug's Life" movie when you see one of these?!
Of course his first request for a reptile pet was a snake but his mean mother told him that would never happen in her house!

He was quick to point out to me how Bearded Dragons prefer human contact. Okay...not exactly the cuddliest looking creature...
