For Symeon's birthday he received a bug collector net and holder from my cousin Travis and it is a big hit. Symeon is constantly collecting bugs, watching them and then when he goes to bed he wants them in his bed with him, and finally we let them go free outside to live with their families. I have drawn the line when it comes to the bugs going to bed with him instead we let them stay in their holder and sit on the table near his bed so he can still see them but I don't have to imagine them getting loose and crawling all over him while he sleeps although I am pretty sure the thought of that happening only bothers me and would not even phase him if it happened. Here he is enjoying some of the bugs we have found.

Buggy after 48 hours. We told Symeon Buggy was sleeping so for days he carried around the collector with a dead bug in it ShhhhShhhing us because he was asleep. We are sad to say that several bugs have perished in Symeon's quest for knowledge but their deaths have not been in vain. We now know there is a 24 hour window of observation time then they must be released to the wild.
