Tadpole Hunting







We were asked by Perry's teacher to help find tadpoles for a science project the class had planned for this week. We went to the creek armed with kitchen strainers and Halloween buckets and found:
1 squishy football
1 disgusting baseball
4 crab claws
1 live snake
many frogs
100's of minnows
The snake would come to the surface occasionally, poking his head out of the water, to look at us with great curiosity. We caught some minnows, hoping that they weren't ALL minnows. Perry stepped on something and cut his foot and had to be carried out of the creekbed.
