Critter Updates...

Despite massive interest on the part of 50-ish children under the age of six, the Robin is still sitting on her eggs. We (kids and grown-ups alike) are working on balancing our desire to spend all of our outdoor time just peeking through the window with our desire to be careful to not scare the mama Robin away. So far, the Frogs are showing remarkable restraint, and the Mama Robin seems to appreciate it!
Steph (the Polliwog Room teacher) borrowed our camera last Wednesday and used the zoom to get this picture while the Mama Robin was away;
FOUR little eggs where there were only three the day before!!! Go Mama Robin!!!
according to the Internet, it takes 12-14 days for Robin's eggs to hatch. Lets keep our fingers crossed that everyone can hold out until then!!!
In other news, our silkworms are eating and growing like crazy! they have at least doubled in size since last week;

(Apologies for the poor image quality. Our camera broke so were relying on my cell phone for the time being...)

We are still going through a LOT of Mulberry leaves, so bring 'em right on in if you have 'em!!!
