Yesterday we decorated our Christmas tree for the birds! We spread peanut butter on pinecones and then dipped them into birdseed and used them as decorations for the tree. The kids seemed really excited about this but after two pinecones they stopped and started digging in the dirt. They found a worm and played with that for a while and then they came to me all excited over a ‘discovery’ they found. It looked like a cocoon – Daddy helped them put it in a jar and researched to see what it was. It turned out to be the cocoon of a Tobacco Hornworm – which Mommy is NOT thrilled about – those darn things ruined our tomato plants this summer!
