Turkeytail Butterfly

  I'm pulling your leg. There is no such creature. But last year's turkeytail fungus was trying hard to be a butterfly. Do you think it will flap its wings and take off? turkeytail fungus

There was another, larger patch of the turkeytail. Looks like it was also trying to grow a butterfly-- on the right edge. turkeytail fungus

In other news: I painted four hours. Was going to do more, but I wasn't sure which paint to switch to, so I came home and continued working on the book marketing materials instead. Oh, and dumping emails. Time-consuming, annoying job.

    I read your title and thought this should be interesting...lol Maybe not a real butterfly but it was still interesting.

    Charlee: "Butterfly."
    Chaplin: "Butterfly."
    Charlee: "Flutter flutter flutter."
    Chaplin: "Flutter away, butterfly, so we can stare at you."
    Lulu: "You guys realize that's just some kind of tree fungus and not an actual butterfly, right?"
    Charlee: "It's a butterfly in our imagination."
    Chaplin: "And it's fluttering!"

    Ann- Polypore fungi grow in such weird ways, sometimes.

    Charlee and Chaplin- you have the spirit. Imagination rules!

    Stew- glad I piqued your curiosity.
