Another day we noticed a magnolia tree in a neighbor's yard. Seed pods were lying all around. One appeared to "float" above the sidewalk!

They were vibrant orange and yellow in color:

Others were green. But the seeds are bright red!

Moss and More Moss
(Please Note: My apologies for the fuzziness of some of these photos. My camera is having focus problems.)
Speaking of green, moss grows everywhere here. In the cracks of the pavement...
On sidewalks....
and curbs...
On rocks...

|
On fences...

and mailboxes...
Even on bridges and trees!
Up close and personal:
A moss collage!
"Merry Mossmess!"
