Well, this morning it was not as hot as usual and since we had a rainstorm last night the soil was not hard baked as it had been the last weeks so we ceased the opportunity and got some dirt and stuff for the latest addition to the family - Kartoffelbug. We dug out some weeds and planted them as well as some sticks that Isa insisted he needs for climbing.
We also gave him a new tomato leaf that we put into one of those orchid water containers so it´ll stay fresh for longer and he seems to enjoy it! Hope his captivity will turn into one big vacation for him!!!
This is how he actually looks since you can´t really tell by the picture above. They´re actually really pretty, about the size of a nickel (a little more than a centimeter in diameter) and for a bug that cause this much devastation throughout history he seems very content eating tomato instead of potato leaves. Maybe I´ll find something else for him to munch on this afternoon when we stroll through the vineyards!
