I uploaded my first video of the month on YouTube for tonight. It was a short video of a magpie that San_San and I found during a visit to Yellowstone Park on our road trip:

DIY Nature Experimenting Open Thread
Yesterday I’ve been working on a DIY nature experiment lately:
What I did there is I used an empty cocoa powder container, fill it up with some water and then carefully add some seeding dandelions one at a time without knocking any parachute seeds off the puffballs so that the dandelions will be quenched with water in order to last a little longer like all other flowers. 🙂
Oh, and speaking of nature, I was out back pulling up a few more weeds and picked up a lot of fallen leaves off the ground just to tidy up our backyard a bit. Then after I got all that done my family and I enjoyed some exquisite submarine sandwiches that we ordered from a Subway restaurant. At least the food from Subway is far better than the food from McDonald’s.
Open thread, ladies and gents!
Have A Very, Very Tall Seeding Dandelion
I took a picture of some kind of weed flower a few days ago at about 1 o’ clock in the afternoon after getting all ready for that day. I found this extremely tall seeding dandelion that was located in our backyard next to a chain-like fence between our backyard and our neighbors’:
This dandelion is about three feet tall. It has a lot of tiny parachute seeds that form a good-sized white puffball that has a really nice smell to it:
That’s a few good reasons why I love these kind of flowers: Super tallness, large puffballs and their smell. 😀 But right now we’re trying to decimate as many dandelions and other tall weed flowers as possible by putting down some poisonous weed killer on them so they can droop little by little at a time and die. Oh, on another note our lawnmower men showed up earlier this morning and finally managed to mow down lots of tall weeds in our neighbors’ backyard after they finished mowing our lawn. At least they solved our weed problem because now we have less weeds to kill. 🙂
We had a wonderful sunset tonight
I had my camera out and took a picture of this gorgeous sunset from outside the window of our dining room:
Guess what I’ve been drawing this evening?
I got my drawing tablet and drew a picture of a tree that grows Cannibis with some nature animals getting stoned and two squirrels eating Lay’s potato chips:
It looks nice but it would’ve been even better if I add a skunk next to one of the nature animals and have it say ‘Can I please join you?’. 😛
One Smoky Evening
I forgot to put this photo up yesterday. We were having a strange sunset out here, and the sky was turning pink because of the smoke and raining ash from the wildfires:
We had a beautiful colorful sunset tonight
Visiting the Trees of Mystery
Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox
Tomala, San_San and I went on a tour to the Trees of Mystery together along with our visitor of Australia. We pulled out our cameras and took pictures of historic trees and wood sculptures while we’re walking around there. Here are some of my own:
Turtle! Turtle!
Looks like cauliflower.
The Sprinkler Tree
Boot ’em, boys!
Digger
Yep, we had a very nice tour around the Trees of Mystery. I remember going there with my family when Tomala and I are little kids. 🙂
Misbehaving Nature Animals on Ellen
I went on YouTube tonight and found this video from The Ellen DeGeneres Show where Ellen shows photos of nature animals who have bad behavior on her segment called ‘Naughty By Nature’:
I think the most hilarious pics are a bear opening a door and a dog humping another while a human mother and her daughter are kissing. 😛
