Nests have been dropping out of trees like strange fibrous fruits. Narrowly avoided careening head first into a loudly humming, low hanging wasps' nest the other day.
We suspect this one was built by a . . . bird . . .
It's really, really, really small . . . should have photographed it with a ruler, really. A pygmy sparrow?
The Thing lately, has been numerous jars of Captive Bugs. We catch them, interrogate them, and release them. Although Baby Man did execute one - suddenly - while supposedly releasing it, so it's a dangerous time.
This astonishing thing appeared out of nowhere. We immediately wrested it from its natural habitat (the outdoor art table) and stripped it of its civil liberties.
The interrogation did not go well. We were convinced it must be planning to morph into some sort of Moth, but it would not confess. So we decided it was an Undiscovered Species! We're doing the paperwork now. Hell, maybe we'll patent its genes!

Have you been to http://www.whatsthatbug.com/ ? Great site. They'd probably love to see that picture.
If you follow my "would not confess" link, I think you'll find it! I was rolling around the idea of sending it to them, cheers!
