This morning, Holly worked on drawing the bug. This week's assignment at Sketch Tuesday just happens to be to sketch an insect. Here is Holly's sketch:
Next, we are going to try and identify it. Do you know what it is?
Update! A former student of mine (who is now a homeschool mom of 4) has identified this bug for us. It is an Ailanthus-Webworm-Moth She found it at Insect Identification.org I never would have thought this bug was a moth. It looked more like a beetle. I guess I was looking in the wrong places. Thank you, Arin!
Sketch Tuesday is a weekly event hosted by Barb at Harmony Art Mom.
Great job on the sketch!
ReplyDeleteHi Karen, thanks so much for visiting my blog and leaving such a kind comment.
ReplyDeleteYour bug is sorta pretty as far as bugs go but I have no idea what it could be. The drawing is wonderful and reminds me that we need to get back into nature journaling and walks soon :-).
Blessings to you and yours, Julie

What a beautiful bug! I thought I would try to find it on the web, but wasn't able to. I don't know why, when there are only millions of bug species, lol. Anyway, here is a site you can send your photo to, and they can probably tell you what it is: www.whatsthatbug.com
ReplyDeleteSome fancy bug!
