Very neat looking. I wouldn't have known what kind had someone not have mentioned it. I was going to have to go look them up so I could tell the kids. Very neat!

Rhonda-You guessed it! I didn't know what it was until I looked it up.

Lisa-Thanks for the info, Barb has been an inspiration to me to add a little more concentrated nature study into our days!
