BUGFEST 2010! by Elly

This is our 4th BUGFEST!

Basketweaving out of ash wood. There are bugs that eat the wood and kill the trees.


A man had a beard of bees. He was teaching us that bees are nice!
I thought it was wierd.

I am holding a baby bee. He was really cute. Baby bees can't fly, see or sting. It felt tickly.


This is the gigantic sand sculpture. It was really cool.

There were tons of people.

We drew pictures for the bug contest. We had to do a bioluminescent bug. Audrey's is on the bottom, mine is above hers, and Celia's is in the top middle. They hung them up in the museum!

This is the inside of the NC Museum of Natural Science. There are four floors!

This is the Alberti Flea Circus! We have seen it about five times! We LOVE it!

Captain Spalding (the flea) is ready to do a canon ball dive.

Paddy O'Reilly (another flea) is about to jump through the ring!

They served bugs to eat.

We didn't get to eat them because there was too long of a line!

That was BUGFEST 2010!
