The Polymorphic Plastic Parade (Tipi tour 09), www.plasticparade.org/ came to Austin. The members of the project had a discussion about the project at the MASS Gallery.
This was very interesting. It was a great idean and I enjoyed discovering how the idea came about and how they accomplished it.

Click twice to optimally enlarge the bird (so you can at least sort-of see it's a hawk, to be specific, an accipiter)..
The common name "variable" refers to the species' highly polymorphic forms. Our professional birding guide identified this one in spite of its significant distance over our heads. Notably, we were standing at 14,108 feet, as measured by a fellow traveler's GPS device.
This location is also famous for the array of radio-antennas near its peak, right at the border of Pichincha and Napo provinces.

Intense, daring, and magnetic. Signature Black deodorant is an alchemy of irresistible notes that enrich and enhance one another. The fragrance combines the inviting aromatic notes of Orange, Grapefruit, and Sweet pea with delightful accords of Peach, Gardenia, and Freesia and finishes off with the tempting base of Patchouli, White Musk, and Leather, leaving a lingering impression.
Sensual, crystal clear, and glamorous. The fragrance of Signature White entices us to explore the generous and polymorphic sides of nature. Top notes of Plum, Black Currant, and Peach fill the wearer with glee and sparkle which unfold into refreshing floral notes of Carnation, Jasmine, and Peony while the base of Vanilla, Amber, and Cedar add to the sophistication of this hypnotic creation.

dark morph. Until recently I could not believe the fair haired and the dark bee to belong to the same species. But then with Anthophora plumipes we have got another example of a polymorphic bee species here.

RWWA-3574 BOLD DNA: specimen is likely to be one of the following between 98-100%: Zeiraphera improbana, Zeiraphera sp., Zeiraphera hesperiana, Zeiraphera fortunana, Zeiraphera griseana, Zeiraphera unfortunana and Zeiraphera diniana.
The highest DNA matches are with two specimens of Zeiraphera improbana (UBC-2007-0190 and 0193) from British Columbia. These are the only two specimens of Z. improbana with matches over those of Zeiraphera griseana in this group of Zeiraphera from here. This will require additional study.

This matching to the numerous above species I think indicates the polymorphic nature of the group Zeiraphera griseana.

Highdown Gardens near Worthing, West Sussex ...
Caltha palustris, known as Marsh Marigold and Kingcup, is a perennial herbaceous plant of the family Ranunculaceae, native to marshes, fens, ditches and wet woodland in temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere.
It becomes most luxuriant in partial shade. It is rare on peat. In the United Kingdom, it is probably one of the most ancient native plants, surviving the glaciations and flourishing after the last retreat of the ice, in a landscape inundated with glacial melt waters.
The flowers are yellow, with 4-9 (mostly 5) petal-like sepals and many yellow stamens. They appear in early spring to late summer. The flowers are visited by a great variety of insects for pollen and for the nectar secreted from small depressions, one on each side of each carpel. Hoverflies, bees, butterflies and dragonflies love the flowers.
Carpels form into green sac-like follicles to 1 cm long, each opening to release several seeds.
Caltha palustris is a highly polymorphic species, showing continuous and independent variation in many features. Forms in the UK may be divided into two subspecies: Caltha palustris subsp. palustris, and Caltha palustris subsp. minor.
It is sometimes considered a weed in clay-like garden soils, where every piece of its root will survive and spread. In warm free-draining soils, it simply dies away. It grows well as a pond marginal, or in the water with up to 4" of water above the basket.
As is the case with many members of the family Ranunculaceae, all parts of the plant are poisonous and can be irritant. Skin rashes and dermatitis have been reported from excessive handling of the plant. It is known to sometimes kill cows and will happily grow in cow manure.
I was a biology geek in school and we a good few trips counting snails , drawing diagrams ...they probably get to play with digi cameras now Sigh...... but if you care a brief and overly simply bio lesson ......all these snail in pictures are the same species Cepaea nemoralis it gets studied a lot in biology cos its polymorphic (within the species it has many physical forms ). On grassland you tend to find just the pale ones, cos the darker snails are very visible to feeding birds and therefore fail to pass on their genes to the next generation . But you get wildly differing types in structually diverse environments like this wood the banding good camouflage for the "stripeys" hanging out on the knots while the "pale snails" prefer the leaves .

Stellwagen Bank CBC- 12/30/11
Excerpt from my email to on-board participants regarding the 24-year record-high count of 46 Northern Fulmars and their 3:1 dark/light ratio:
"Perhaps most unusual and surprising was the ratio of dark and light morph fulmars (a polymorphic species). In the Atlantic population, birds in the high Arctic at the northern-most reaches of the species’ range are mostly dark, while those that occupy the southern portions of its range (and the birds we typically see at Stellwagen) are mostly light. Why this pattern was reversed among the birds we saw yesterday is a mystery. Let’s hope it’s not indicative of more trouble in the Arctic due to climate change."

This is a really variable species, with lots of named varieties. Most botanists tend not to put much faith in varietal status (statuses?), but rather look at this stuff as a widely distributed entity...a "polymorphic" species.
It is superficially similar to Stachys, and can fool you in the field, until you get close up to it. Although they look similar, Stachys and Teucrium reside in different subfamiles within the Lamiaceae.
