Strange Adaptations

In this weeks Science Spin we read about a flip-flopping spider.  The spider flip flops when threatened and somersaults to get away from any threat.  Have you ever seen an animal with a weird or strange adaptation?  Maybe a strange bird, bug, or fish.  If you haven't, have you seen any animal learn a strange trick?  Share what animal you've seen with a strange adaptation or trick and tell what it was.

What did you do this summer?

Welcome students.  The best part of my summer was camping at Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.  During my trip, my family and I went horseback riding, zip-lining, white water rafting, and go cart racing.  It was so much fun.  Tell me what was the best part about your summer.  You can tell me about a trip you took or maybe you stayed home and relaxed.
