Damp this morning
We got .09″ this morning. It sprinkled a bit more around 11am. The sun came out this afternoon with a high of about 58.
When the fallen leaves are damp, it brings out browns. I sure would not like this picture for a jigsaw puzzle.
This Honey Locust (Gleditsia triacanthos) stump pops in the damp weather.
A grasshopper wing is cool with its wing cells and the wing veins.
Fungus with a bright green moss to highlight it.
Fungus on a Honey Locust. It looks like it is dripping. Maybe Spongy Toothed Polypore (Sarcodontia pachyodon)
This fungus looks mad.
Ok, I arranged these snake vertebrae. 🙂
A little bright color this afternoon with Oxalis (Oxalis stricta).
Nice fungus and very natural snake vertebrae arrangement 😉
The honey locust stump looks like owl eyes to me. I can even imagine a beak.
Great comments and descriptions with the photos! Neat stuff to bring to our awareness. I have an idea for you. Take the snake vertebrae, clean them and paint them gold then hang them on a Christmas tree. If only you could encase that grasshopper wing somehow then dangle it from a branch as well.
We've been blowing away today. big wind and gusts. Seen a few dust devils with all the wind wrapping around our buildings.
Suzanne, I see it now that you pointed it out. I guess I was just looking at the colors. Thanks!
Kathy,
Thank you! On your idea for me, if you want I will save them for you. I don't need another project, but I bet you don't have enough to do :-). Do you want me to mail them to you?
