While in Houston we visited the wonderful Butterfly Center at the
Houston Museum of Natural Science.
My good friend and previous teaching partner Anna and her beautiful son Louis joined us for the fun.
Eva especially loved this new addition. It is a beehive. El quickly convinced Eva to be the worker bee while El was the Queen Bee! So basically El sat by me at a table and Eva would fly over for her next instruction. El has life figured out.
This is where the bee pollinates the flowers.
Eva explained to our group how the markings on this butterfly look like a large eye which helps to scare off predators. Someone has been studying butterflies!
Sweet Louis!
We were completely enamored. He is such a sweetie!
This guy was too cool not to photograph.
The Runkle girls!
Anna and Louis
Thanks for joining us!
We later found these magnifiers. They are supposed to be used to see insects. El and Eva found more amusing uses!
They've got the whole world... in their hands.
