Hi everyone! Now that I've had my nap I'm ready to tell you all about my butterflies. Today Mom and I went down to Ruskin, FL (where all the good tomatoes come from). We were volunteering with the Tampa Bay Estuary Program. The county recently did a controlled burn at this site and they needed people to pick up the trash that had been exposed as well as to document gopher tortoise burrows. Mom and I had the unglamorous (yet important) job of picking up trash. Some of the things we found: a helium tank, two tires, dozens of beer bottles, and the tailgate to a truck! I took a picture just to prove it. And that would be the Little Manatee River in the back.
