I mean, just look at this. Have you ever seen anything like it? This. This, my friends.. These are the things that keep me up at night - chasing down the identity of a new friend, someone completely alien to me. I mean, look at those feelers, the black eyes, and that mandible.. Those legs! Those feet! And the red stripes.. How did this come to look like this? Seriously.. It's more than I can stand. I am completely infatuated.. Mesmerized.. And to think.. when this wild critter grows into an adult it will add to the cacophony of sound I hear right outside of my window as I type this. Welcome to my garden young katydid. Hark! The season of insects is upon us!
Alien Mystery
The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existence. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery each day.
~ Albert Einstein
Log
I've been watching this log for a while. Something digs in it regularly. There are not any insects visible to the eye and very few scratch marks that are identifiable as such. I have only seen a wren on it. And yet, it continues to become more 'dirt' like each day.
An interesting mystery.
