I like the composition of this photograph. At first there is just a field of green, then the Katydid picked out against the leaves, then the gap in leaves and the insect staring into the beyond, one antennae reaching down into the void. Is it going to jump? (Well, it is a Katydid.) Is it going to jump before I can snap the photo (luckily no).
Happy Mother’s Day to all those that nurture, whether they be your own offspring, someone else’s offspring, or adopted fuzzy family.
It is a modest harvest, but a welcome one. Some eggs for breakfast, and some basil to make pesto, all gathered from the yard.
I took a bunch of photos of flowers as I toured the meadow. The one that cracks me up is the purple thistle growing through the deer statue’s haunch. I really like the look of the purple thistles, reminds me of Scotland.
I didn’t realize that bluebonnets form seed pods like peas. Hm.
Precipitously, the pepper plants may produce plentiful peppers from peeking pea-like protuberances. I hope pesky pests don’t purloin the precious produce preemptively. Perhaps precaution proclaims protection for the pretty potential peppers.
P.S. I couldn’t help myself, but will attempt not to recite the verse where popping “p”s or flying spittle can reach anyone. I am particularly pleased with this post.
