Why do beetles turn upside down

Lawrence Bricker Silver Spring, Maryland. Radiotelescopes focus and detect radio waves, which are a form of light, not sound. The only difference between visible light and radio waves is wavelength—about 0. If the Titanic had dropped its anchor before hitting the iceberg, would that have mitigated the disaster? Cardinale Avondale, Louisiana. Not at all.

The water at the collision site was 12, feet deep—far too deep for the anchor chain. Once the chain was completely played out, the end likely would have flown out of the chain locker and plummeted to the bottom. And even if the end of the chain held fast, the anchor would have hung uselessly in the deep, with nothing to grasp nearby.

Depending on the pesticide, a bug can die within hours or days of ingesting the poison. An injury or a lack of food or water can also compromise a bug's ability to right itself. Or the bug could simply be at the end of its lifespan and its strength and coordination abilities are declining.

No direct takeaway, really. Perhaps a few little insights here and there, but nothing too profound. Normally, if a bug is knocked onto its back, it can use its legs to rock on its sides until it rights itself. Or the bug could simply be at the end of its lifespan, and its strength and coordination abilities are declining. Sweet and lovely, and I enjoyed every moment of reading this. You have an amazing gift in your writing. Thanks for sharing with me! Karen Mills. Love You! We came upon a turtle…yes, turned upside down!

Seagulls were poking at its underside. I immediately ran up to it, scaring the birds away and turning the turtle right side up expecting it to just scurry away at his own slow pace. So we continued walking on our way and when I looked back at it to assure myself that he was ok, there were those darn birds again!

They had turned him over on his back again. This time there happened to be a man walking by. I asked him if he might pick the turtle up and throw him into the ocean, thinking that might save him. He agreed to do just that with a smile. I walked away knowing I had saved that turtle from a slow, painful death.

We kept on our way, but I had to turn for one last look. Those birds had found him in the ocean and had managed to drag him out and once again turn him over on his back.
