These are seed pods from the golden raintree, a species I’ve only seen here in Florida. Several of these large trees in my garden provide amazing fall color with two weeks of golden flowers in September followed by two months when the trees are laden with these salmon-colored seed pods, each containing three sturdy seeds. The pods resemble Chinese paper lanterns, or, as a second thought thought based on Cal's initial comment below, luscious lips in a Botox commercial. :-))
I generally like to photograph things in their natural setting, but these trees are forty feet high, and somehow, the delicate pods lose much of their impact when heaped on the ground. Plus it was pouring rain, so I, appropriately, took my raintree pods inside and tried a tabletop display.

"-Yo creo que nadie ha definido hasta
hoy un cuento de manera satisfactoria,
cada escritor tiene su propia idea del
cuento. En mi caso, el cuento es un
relato en el que lo que interesa es
una cierta tensión, una cierta
capacidad de atrapar al lector y
llevarlo de una manera que podemos
calificar casi de fatal hacia una
desembocadura, hacia un final.
Aunque parezca broma, un cuento es
como andar en bicicleta..."
Julio Cortázar.

I love this long gown with animal print.
Have a wonderful sunday. The weather is fantastic, the temperature too. I am pleased about the dinner I was invited.😄
Love Awena 💋💋
Yep, we're all going to die here. That's for sure.
We found a bubble with some strange creature inside.
Ranger Rick insisted on having a closer look.
The thing stirred and watched us with its giant eye.
Diva started screaming. Again. I really hope she dies first.
Himalayan Balsam Pods.
These grow as invasive weeds in the nearby brook carried by the water and proliferating along the muddy banks. Because the seed pods explode quite violently and have a spring mechanism inside the seeds can be found up to 5 metres from the point where the pod bursts. Kids love them and act as another dispersal method.

I found these little insects on some of the Milkweed pods. There are hundreds of them on each pod. They are as small as a pinhead.
The bottlenose dolphin is a toothed whale in the genus Tursiops. They are common, cosmopolitan members of the family Delphinidae, the family of oceanic dolphins.
Molecular studies show the genus contains three species: the common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus), the Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops aduncus), and Tamanend's bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops erebennus).
Bottlenose dolphins inhabit warm and temperate seas worldwide, being found everywhere except for the Arctic and Antarctic Circle regions. Their name derives from the Latin tursio (dolphin) and truncatus for the truncated teeth (the type specimen was old and had worn down teeth; this is not a typical characteristic of most members of the species).
Numerous investigations of bottlenose dolphin intelligence have been conducted, examining mimicry, use of artificial language, object categorisation, and self-recognition. They can use tools (sponging; using marine sponges to forage for food sources they normally could not access) and transmit cultural knowledge from generation to generation, and their considerable intelligence has driven interaction with humans.
Bottlenose dolphins gained popularity from aquarium shows and television programmes such as Flipper. They have also been trained by militaries to locate sea mines or detect and mark enemy divers. In some areas, they cooperate with local fishermen by driving fish into their nets and eating the fish that escape. Some encounters with humans are harmful to the dolphins: people hunt them for food, and dolphins are killed inadvertently as a bycatch of tuna fishing and by getting caught in crab traps.
Common bottlenose dolphins have an encephalisation quotient of 5.26, which is even higher than chimpanzees. This more than likely contributes to their high intelligence.
I saw this pod whilst on a boat trip in the Bay of Islands on the north-east coast of New Zealand's North Island.
This is Corliss' personal favorite and prying it out of her hands may take a while. Its odd how/why one becomes attached to a piece, as we're always making more. Our usual mantra is "off the bench and out the door". But not this one. John sees this as a bad habit not to be encouraged - something like making pets of farm animals.
The alien pod has landed. This is a center detail of Chawan Basu which is shown in the previous photo.
Zoom shot of the travellers on the London Eye! I would love to go on here one day - though the length of the queue we walked by was very very long!

So, Hallbadorn here. I'm currently trying to enjoy a week long vacation from work and the weather here in Edmonton, AB has sucked!!! - POD - and I have been stuck in the house all weekend, minus a fabulous dinner out with our good friends on Saturday night, due to rain and mosquitos and I have started to go crazy!! Today we were optimistically going to do a photo-walk downtown at the Edmonton Street Performer's Festival but our plans were drowned out by rain.
I still wanted to take photos though! This shot was a result of my determination to get a good photo. I took it with our Fujifilm FinePix X100 at our favorite coffee shop, Transcend Coffee. I finally figured out how to use the X100 properly so I'm ecstatic that it turned out!
