Well, I should say that this post is about my second favorite thing in the barn - beetles! Note: if you are easily grossed out, please advert your eyes. Mutti, this means you! :)
Awhile back the center got some dermestid beetles - AKA: Flesh eating beetles. Before you run away, they only eat dead things and they make preparing skulls to use for education a
TON easier which is why they are my second favorite thing!

| Pileated Woodpecker - how amazing is the tongue? (For those of you not familiar, the birds tongue is so long it attaches to the back of the head - its the 2 white tendons things below the beak) |

| Finished project - and me having to play dentist! |
| Oh, for those of you wondering, Isis (the kestrel I train) is my favorite thing in the barn! |
