Can you spot the Praying Mantis?

Troop 2698 was lucky enough to have Boris Kondratieff from CSU come to our May 14th meeting with a cooler full of bugs...literally!

The cooler full of bugs

 Boris Kondratieff

Boris was so entertaining and you can tell how passionate he is about insects, arachnids, crustaceans and all of the other bugs that he talked about.  He was funny and so impressed with the girls knowledge of insects.  Thankful that we just wrapped up that unit at school!

The big hit with the whole troop was "Rosie" the Tarantula.  They were each able to hold her for a moment.
