The Capitol Hill program has been going wild with science this past month. Between the Manduca Sexta (aka Tobacco Horn Worms) that were given to us courtesy of the University of Washington Biology Department to study at various stages of development, monarch butterflies, and the pacific green tree frogs we have nursed to adulthood the kids are getting a big dose of metamorphosis and what it means to be a caretaker and world citizen of nature!
