Autumn Flowers

 

Autumn Flowers

Autumn is in

full swing here in Mansfield.  Summer flowers are being frosted as we speak on 10-30-18.  By the time you read this, Fall flowers will be a memory.

This image is from Kingwood Center in November of 2007 in the green house.  These flowers will last longer in this setting compared to those outside.  Poinsettias may be next.

 I think the grass makes a good backdrop.

November, the Month of Thankgiving

Wild Tom Turkey

 Maybe we can give him a reprieve again this year!

  I saw this creature in the side yard of the John Oliver cabin in Cades Cove Tennessee.

Weloganite

Weloganite

Discovered in 1967 by Ann P. Sabina.  It is a rare mineral.  The type location and the "came from" moniker are the same:  Franco Quarry Montreal, Canada.

Weloganite

It was named after Sir William Edmond Logan of Montreal who lived during the 19th century.  He was the first director of the Geological Survey from 1842 - 1875.

Weloganite

It's chemical formula is Na2(Sr,Ca)3Zr(CO3)6·3H2O  There are very few places through out the world other than Montreal where it is found.

Bird Skeleton

bird skeleton

 I found this on the shelf in the old Larry's Images workroom.  I am sure that I laid it there with the intention of photographing it.

Eye Socket

I went through all of my bird identification guides but could not find a bird with a beak looking like this one.  The colored part of the beak measures 25mm.

Spinal Segment

I think that next thing for me to do is turn it in at Gorman even though I don't think it came from there.  For some reason, Lake Erie comes to mind.  I seem to remember there is a law about that.

Corn Harvest

Case IH_7088 axial Flow Combine Harvesting Corn

 The time has come again!  I noticed the other day that my friend  and neighbor has started shelling corn.

Grain Hopper Trailer

This trailer goes along side the Picker/sheller so it will not need to stop to unload the grain.
