Nature Corner/Storybook Room - Water Strider

 Nature Corner/Storybook Room for Saturday morning, July 18, 2026

A tiny insect that you might see on any pond is Uncle Bob Devine's guest for this Saturday, the Water Strider. A water strider is able to walk, stand, or float on water because the hairs in his legs and body are waterproof. Plus, he is able to use the surface tension of the water for added buoyancy. He is able to carry about 15 times his own body weight on water (quite a little boat).

Let's let Bob and water strider share more about him with us!

July 18, 2026, is RB091

In the Eagles' Nest

Bill and Lieutenant Larson of the US Aeronautical Survey Team find Old Man Margrave tied up and half dead in his cabin in Lost Canyon. Two thugs, Hawk and Banjo Eyes, did this to the old gentleman to get his treasure hidden up in the mountain cliffs. The key to finding the treasure is hidden in the cabin under a brick. So why does Bill want a football uniform, a pilot's helmet, 100 feet of rope, and 10 pounds of beef to find the treasure? How will Bill, Henry, and Lt. Larson keep the two crooks from stealing or destroying the treasure? What is this mysterious treasure anyway? You'll have to listen to find out.
