My first woolly bear. (I always called them woolly worms). He was crossing the road and I saw him as I was passing by. This is what I always used to do when I walked to school. I would walk along the side of the road because the side walk was all grown over with weeds. I would look for bugs, plants or anything that was different from the previous time I walked this way.

The woolly bear is supposed to be an indication of the coming winter. If they are dark and thick, the winter is supposed to be cold. This one was light and thin. Hooray!
