3. The Most Interesting Thing I Have Seen this Week
Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, July 21, 2020


I did not touch it, but this fungus growing on a dead tree limb on the ground is about as big as my hand.

  9. Oh I like that fungus too but my fav is that cute box turtle! He is so curious. When I try to photograph a turtle, they pull back in their shell. Happy weekend!

  11. ...wonderful soft colors.
    ...Encore Azaleas are too tender for us to grow them.
    ...after our recent rain fungus is growing here too.
    ...I have yet to see a turtle this year.
    ...it's wonderful to hear the Mockingbirds.
    Thanks Lea for stopping by, stay cool.

  14. Haven't seen a turtle up here in forever. I used to see them a lot when I lived in Arkansas. Your friend has its neck sticking right out there. And, while living in Arkansas, I would hear mockingbirds sing in the middle of the night. And sing. And sing. Don't miss that. Interesting tree fungus.

  17. Hurricane Hanna. ...I think it's over. Power went out yesterday about 1 pm...didn't get any A.C. until it was restored about 9 this morning. High winds, sporadic heavy rain, and last night tornadoes all over the area. No damage for us except lots of small branches.

    Thanks for stopping by and linking up this weekend. Bud & I have a bit of clean-up to do, so my visit is short.
