I've had this rock forever and don't remember where it came from. Just google-lens'd it and that says it's a meteorite!! Cool! It's fairly heavy for its size, and only slightly magnetic.

Interesting holes in this chunk of limestone!

Such a sparkly rock, in real time! And it has a little dark "cave" of crystals, and a nodular thing. Rocks are so cool.

Found this cool rock just now, with a little cylindrical thing...and i broke it off turning the rock around !!! 🤬🤬🤬

Doing well indoors.

Here's the thing. When we have near-freezing temps for a couple of nights, and move all my plants into nooks & crannies & sheds to protect them, I often forget to then uncover them once we're back to summery temps. The house is fine, but I forgot about my Baobabs in the shed!

Shadow, growling and barking at something in the darkness while I was star gazing. Probably that coyote.

Shadow has quite a throaty growl!

Look, look, look!!! A coyote!
That's probably what Shadow was growling at when I was star gazing last night.

Squamulose lichen. Cross between a fungus and an algae or cyanobacterium. Grows on the bare ground.

Unless I'm wrong.

Cunning little tracks up front near the wildlife water tub. Raccoon, probably...about to check the trail cam.
