Nature Notes in June!

Last week I showed you the giant falling limb in Dad's yard. Lest you think it is all disaster over there, this week I bring you a mosaic - my first(!) - I made of things I found around the yard and a bouquet I made.

The robin's egg had a hole on the other side and some yolk. I think that a chick had just never developed and the mother got rid of the egg. My dad found it while mowing.

    The nature collage is lovely. Too bad the egg wasn't viable for a robin but it's beautiful.

      I think that the baby just never developed; so it did not die or anything. I love that shade of blue too!
