Micro crochet snail. 17mm long, crocheted with Valdani sewing thread. Probably the tiniest thing I have ever made!
This finch had some very fine, almost hairlike feathers that promptly showed up. Such a beautiful little bird.
One last piece of vintage machinery from Thomas Edison's machine shop.
There are some great pieces of industrial history here, but the light can be a bit challenging for a photographer, due to the big windows. Guess I need to go back for a longer visit on a cloudy day in the winter...

Took a little walk in the James River yesterday. I took this while standing in a little sandbar that appeared only in the last year or so. The secret (What is it about me and secrets the past couple of pictures?) is that you have to stay really close to the bank. Otherwise it's like quicksand. As one foot sank in quickly, I scrambled closer to the bank, laughing at myself.
...sleep falls and the journey begins...

First time to see these in our lantana. Tried to grab a couple of photos, not quite in sharp focus but wanted to record its presence. May get better ones later. They nest in the ground.

Thread-waisted wasp, (subfamily Sphecinae), any of a group of large, common, solitary (nonsocial) wasps in the family Sphecidae (order Hymenoptera) that are named for the stalklike anterior (front) end of the abdomen. Thread-waisted wasps are typically more than 2.5 cm (about 1 inch) long and are parasitic on insects and spiders. The host is often numbed by malaxation, a pinching or crushing of the neck by the wasp’s pincerlike jaws, and paralyzed by the wasp’s sting. The wasp places the host’s body in a mud cell and lays an egg on it. Upon hatching, the larva consumes the host.[Encyclopedia Britannica]

Silk threads on Autumn Hydrangea blossoms.

On a misty spring morning in 1804, John James Audubon crouched beneath a sycamore in rural Pennsylvania, his eyes fixed on a flighty eastern phoebe. Its tail flicked as it darted from a low perch, snagging a beetle mid-flight. Audubon, then a young naturalist with a wild mop of hair and a sketchbook tucked under his arm, had an idea—something no one had tried.
With a thin thread of silk from his wife Lucy’s sewing kit, he gently captured the bird, tying a delicate silver band around its leg. “A marker,” he murmured, “to know you again.” Released, the phoebe fluttered off, its sharp “fee-bee” call ringing through the woods.
As the following spring came to life, Audubon spotted that same thread on a returning phoebe, he grinned—proof of its journey. That simple act, born of curiosity and patience, sparked a legacy of bird banding, forever tying Audubon's name to ornithology.
just playing around editing. i'll hopefully be able to shoot some new stuff soon since the weather's been a bit more bearable
Mrs Nghien started spinning silk at age 20, and retired in 2023 at the age of 96. She was kind enough to set up her tools and show us her skill.
Truc Ninh in Vietnam has a long history of silk production. Renowned for its high-quality silk, the region has a strong tradition of manual silk thread production, passed down through generations. While facing modern challenges, Truc Ninh continues to produce silk, combining traditional methods with modern techniques to sustain this valuable cultural heritage and contribute to the local economy.
