This is where I spent the first 25 years of my life, in a little southern New England town called Beacon Falls. The house my father built with a nice-sized yard filled with flower beds, trees, and plants all growing nice with the green thumbs of my parents. I was surrounded by woods on all sides, along with ponds, swamps and a creek. Insects were aplenty in my yard and I learned to appreciate nature at an early age. My Sister Kathy first showed me anthills and how to put sugar or other food items down to watch them collect it and bring back to their nest and I was hooked!!! My natural curiosity is as strong as ever as a grown up and have fun reading up on all insects, encountering and watching them outside and studying their habits and taking pictures of them and watching specials about them on TV. Hope you enjoy this blog and a closer look at the Savage Garden.
