How Old Is That Tree Mommy????

They have slowly turned the outside table into their display area for all their finds. I have cow bones, bracken mushrooms that are white which we have never seen before. Bird feeders and thanks to the nice Lowe's guy we have tree cut offs. Thought it be a nice time to show them how to count the rings. Since this pic was taken I have an almost complete spinal cord, legs, and skull from a deer. They begged to bring home the dead owl but I was too scared of what it would attract as it was all meaty and not bone. We also found a dead alligator they wanted to drag outta the river and put on the porch. I can't even say, oh well that is a boy for ya cause my little Princess Skyler came away in tears at leaving that gator!!! I just hope everyone who reads this knows my children are BIG TIME animal lovers and would never even harm a bug. They love dead things though. They love bones and guts and anything like that. They feel sad for any animal that has died and I used to have to bury everything. I stress everything including the 23 tadpoles that died one year. I have buried fish, crabs, little birds we found etc etc. They outgrew that but they loves to see bones and all. They love to see how it all works I guess. Curiosity is a good thing! Maybe I will raise a few doctors or vets!!
