Joy to the World!

White - as Snow!

Thanks to many volunteers, our town square recognizes area residents who participated

in any war at any time.

Scavenger Hunt Sunday - November 9, 2014

It has been quite some time since I've attempted to link to Scavenger Hunt Sunday.   I recently checked out this next week's categories... and thought perhaps these might fit.  :-)  

My photos from my yard.  Thanks for not copying.

1.  My View - "There's a Fly in my Eye!"

2.  In My Bag -  

Check out the link HERE to learn about "Pollen Baskets" (corbicula), which is one way bees store and carry large amounts of pollen.

3.  Warm -

The photo below reminds me of myself; wearing my fall vest to keep my body warm, and yet allowing my arms, clothed in shirtsleeves, to remain free.

 4.  Sleeping -

 Ligularia 'Othello' blossoms "sleeping" but in the process of "waking."

5.   Part of the Body -

The Monarch is such a little, light-weight in the grand scheme of the animal world.

This is a link to a great explanation of butterfly anatomy; including wings.

and  

this is a link to basic facts about Monarch butterflies.

A trillium found in the woods in 2007 had 5 petals;

Below, in 2008, it had 4 petals;

 Below, in 2009, it had 3 petals (as it should);

 In 2010, it had 4 petals;

Again, in 2011, it had 4 petals.

 And in 2012??  We shall see!  :-)

 (Are you noticing the distinct change in markings, also?)

Paper

Plastic
