"It did not occur to me that the wasps might have fashioned it for themselves" (Brooks 3). As Bruce Brooks matured, he understood that the wasp house he had discovered was built by nature, and not by man. Like the thought processes of many other five-year-olds, Bruce Brooks' chain of thought was childlike and incomplete. Although first led by the design of the nest to believe that it was man-made, Brooks soon discovered that that was not so, much to his disbelief and dismay. By the end of the…

We arrived when the sun was beaming down on the early morning of October 2nd.I was amazed at the number of Egrets and various other wetland creatures we came upon arriving.
