Melli's ABC Challenge: Letters Y and Z

This is the final week of Melli's ABC challenge. These past thirteen weeks she has asked us to 'find the alphabet revealed either in nature...or elsewhere...but found naturally--unassisted by us.' Todays letters are Y and Z.
I think this Y is my favorite find of the challenge. I found this back in February at the beginning of the challenge. I was out picking up sticks that had fallen from the oak tree and turned and there was the most perfect natural Y. If you enlarge this you can see a bird feather nestled in the dried grass.
I'm really pleased too with this line of Y's along an interstate highway. They were all lined up and standing proud. The sign across the highway had lots of X's I noticed and if you look closely W, Y and Z. If you enlarge this next photo I painted out the shapes to show you what I see.

W, X, Y and Z


Z was found in yet another highway sign.


Thanks for the fun Melli!

Melli's ABC Challenge: Letters O and P

This is week eight of Melli's Wednesday ABC Challenge. She wants us to find the alphabet revealed either in nature ... or elsewhere... but found naturally -- unassisted by us. Today's letters are O and P.
If you look closely I think you can make out both letters in this little key that opens all of the doors inside my house. Although not pictured it is a little 'o' that the key goes in.

















I found some natural O's blown all over my back deck. The wisteria pods have all blown apart.
The little round seeds are everywhere. Looking inside the pod you can see the little round outlines where the smallest seeds laid inside the pod.















The wisteria has knotted itself in a noose- like 'O.' I'm thinking it's getting a little annoyed with all those little birdies up above going potty all the time! :)










I found one half pod still hanging with one little seed still inside.
This happens when the wisteria pods go POP!
