maybe Pearl is responsible for the new flowers ha!
she just turned three months in this picture. she is growing up fast and loosing that puppy look!
My son thought it would be okay to take Pearl out with Cocoa without Cinnamon’s old harness if we both supervised them. It didn’t last long. I don’t want to risk losing my Pearl girl.
NB: found and photographed in the wild.
I thought how pretty these pearl oyster mushrooms were with their soft, gentle colours and delicate frills/gills. Here they are, after being harvested, resting on the tree where they had been found.
Pearl oyster mushrooms are an edible fungi; one of the most widely consumed mushrooms around the globe.
The common name comes from their oyster-shaped cap and very short (or completely absent) stem.
In a natural environment, one can find oyster mushrooms in autumn, as these were, in south-west Pennsylvania.
These caps were small, no bigger than 6 cm diameter.

I learned that Pieris is a genus of shrubs in the flowering plant family Ericaceae, native to mountainous regions of eastern and southern Asia, eastern North America and Cuba.
Known commonly as andromeda, pearl bush and lily-of-the-valley shrub (not related).
Often grown as ornamental plants, valued for year-round interest due to bright red new growth in early spring, chains of small, white flowers in mid-spring and buds that remain on the plant through the winter.
Bell-shaped flowers have a lovely, honey scent and are up to 15 mm in length.
These plants grow best in a shady spot, sheltered from winter winds.

Pearl and I went to the pet store last week to get her more food.
Usually, she shows no interest in the toys when she's there, but for whatever reason, she was VERY interested in this little stuffed chipmunk. She fished it out of a bin of miscellaneous dog toys and carried it all through the store with her, so of course I had to buy it for her.
It's become the new favorite!
One of my favourite species, with this one found roosting whilst still covered in early morning dew.
First butterfly of 2019 - After the Pearl Crescent flew around the yard in search of a spot to rest, it finally landed on a white pipe. Morgan County, Alabama.
Have a wonderful day/night my dear friends! Cheers!

Painting creates silence. You could examine the objects themselves, the actors in a Dutch still life—this knobbed beaker, this pewter salver, this knife—and, lovely as all antique utilitarian objects are, they are not, would not be, poised on the edge these same things inhabit when they are represented.
These things exist—if indeed they are still around at all—in time. It is the act of painting them that makes them perennially poised, an emergent truth about to be articulated, a word waiting to be spoken. Single word that has been forming all these years in the light on the knife’s pearl handle, in the drops of moisture on nearly translucent grapes: At the end of time, will that word be said?”

Pearl was my very first String Of Pearls plant and this was the first planter of this type I've ever bought. I love it!
If all we have are moments,
I will cherish each and everyone of them as if they were pearls,
I will string them into a necklace and wear them close to my heart forever…
To complete the set, an image of a Pearl bordered Fritillary [Yorkshire's rarest butterfly] taken from below. This has long been my favourite viewpoint with the light shining through the wings.
A closer view of the Pearl-bordered Fritillary, 13 shot stack using a reflector to bounce some light back.
Friends are like pearls in the necklace, they
look more beautiful when they are together.

Do you ever wonder what goes on in the minds of these mystical creatures who share their lives with us?
Are they dreaming? wondering? remembering? hoping?
I especially like this shot. It is natural sunlight in the front window this morning. First sunshine we've had for a LONG time! It really brings out the beauty of the pearls AND the pale sequins.
