I came home from work and Butch said, "You have to see this" and took me back outside and showed me this long, meandering path through the myrtle. A turtle did it. He saw the turtle in the driveway and looked for it again a while later and never saw where it went. (He made sure it wasn't in or near the road.) It really looks like he ate his way through the myrtle, not just flattened it. It was pretty neat, but I wish I had seen the turtle myself. A turtle in the myrtle. Dr. Suess's Yertle perhaps?

264/365 Crayons?
Yes crayons. When I started doing the photo groups on flickr, several people from the "one object" group were also doing the "Sixty Four Colors" group and I kept seeing their pictures and thinking what a cool thing, but didn't want to join another one because the 365's were enough of an obligation. But every week there would be more and more fantastic pictures. Then Marti joined and sent me the link to the orange pix and I hemmed and hawed and ended up getting a box of crayons which meant I was joining yet another group. But the two 365 groups are almost in their last quarter. I don't think I will do a project involving daily pix again, I like the groups like the scavenger hunt, that sets no time limit, or the 64 group because it is a weekly obligation. I have loved doing the 365, but there are those days when you are scrambling to get the "11 o'clock photo".

260/365
We went for a walk by the pond today and kept seeing this large rust colored flying object buzzing around. I thought it was probably a dragonfly of some sort but it was quick and reddish and I've never seen one quite that color. It finally landed where I could get a good picture of it and it was beautiful. I think I am going to have to add a dragonfly book and a fungus book to my library of field guides. (I just bought a butterfly one on vacation.)
