Step right up and check out these blog carnivals in which Slugyard is honored to be taking part. What is a blog carnival? Check out this site on the Nature Blog Network for a description. There is some great information at all of these sites and the hosts did a great job presenting it.
- Berry Go Round – hosted by Brainripples and includes Slugyard’s “Cleavers Stick to You”
- Festival of the Trees – hosted by Growing With Science and includes Slugyard’s “Where Do Trees Come From?”
- Circus of the Spineless – hosted by Birder’s Lounge and includes Slugyard’s “Venus Flytrap Helping a Boxelder Bug”
Thanks to each of the hosts for their hard work!






If I were a boxelder bug, I’d think twice about that offer of help.
Sounds like good advice to me. We watched it for a while thinking it would venture forth into a trap, but somehow it avoided trouble.
