Despite its stunning blue appearance, the Blue Morpho is not colored blue.
The overlapping scales on its upper wings have tiny ridges that reflect blue light giving a brilliant blue effect.

Teddy and Me
Do you have a teddy bear or did you have one as a child?
I bet you didn’t have to make the teddy yourself.
Our friend, Radi, crafted himself a teddy out of sticks.
He carried it everywhere he went.
It didn’t look like the typical teddy; however, it appeared to have a similar therapeutic value.

Baby Name
It’s interesting to hear some of the names people choose for their babies.
Some pick names to honor ancestors.
Others pick a name that is trendy or simply sounds good to them.
The name for this baby is Masika (muh-SEEK-uh).
In Swahili, her name means “born in the rainy season.”

Up Against the Wall
Honest, officer, I didn’t do anything wrong.
Feel free to search me.

Baby Showoff
A proud mom shows off her new baby.
You must admit, this baby has a high level of cuteness.

Quiet Bridge
When I think of bridges, it’s not the spectacular tributes to human ingenuity that first come to mind.
It’s the old wooden bridges that I see.
There is something quiet and inviting about them.
They seem to be waiting for me to stroll across them.

Baby Stripes
Baby zebras begin with brown stripes. I’m fascinated with this idea.
When we transition from child to adult, we don’t have big changes in color.
Perhaps it would be an advantage.
Think about it.
If human babies were bright colors like orange, turquoise, or lime it would be easy to tell at a glance who was a child.
- Fake IDs wouldn’t work.
- You’d know who to put at the kids’ table during gatherings.

In the Groove
Why does this snake try to stay in the grooves between the blocks in the wall?
Does the support of the sides help him move?
Why did he try to climb up the wall?
He ended up coming back down to his original track almost immediately.
It seems like wasted effort.
Of course, it was a nice photo opportunity for me.
Groovy!

Lettuce Baby
Makari hopes you don’t think she is a bad mom,
but her baby (Masika) makes a nice shelf for this lettuce.
