"Microcosmos"


Earlier, I watched this documentary from 1996 that shows the lives of different insects from a close up point of view.  There are some great scenes, especially about the different life stages.  My favorites were probably all of the types of caterpillars and the bee larva in the hive.  I have to admit, there were a couple of parts that I just couldn't watch!  Can you already guess what they were about?


Snails, of course!  I had a lot of trouble watching the scenes that had to do with snails, but there were enough interesting parts to make up for it! 

If you have Netflix at home, this movie is currently streaming.  Ask a parent first, of course!
