The view from my sisters house. (she lives in a farm cottage)

Slow, are you using Photobucket? If you are, try adjusting the size box on the Upload Images & Video panel.
All my pictures came out that small, until I realised I had the option set to Reduce to 100x75 (Tiny)...

HoopyFrood · 31st December 2008, 07:05 PM

If you click on the picture, though, it comes up nice and big.

pyan · 31st December 2008, 07:09 PM

Duh, I never noticed that... just lead me off to a nice quiet room, someone...

Macrocosm, or life within the hole in a manhole cover!

Can you guess what these are?

and another of its kind

Rosemary · 3rd January 2009, 04:20 PM

Like the plant life around the manhole cover, AE.

I was going to say the other images were of Maltesers cut in half but that might be because I am a little peckish!

My pic is of another Balga 'spear'. The last one I posted was covered in tiny white flowers. These have now gone and the seed pods are forming.

Whats a Balga Spear? Being one who is interested in plants I'm intrigued!

Ursa major · 3rd January 2009, 04:52 PM

I was going to suggest that they were proof that Pod People exist, AE, but you'd probably think I was nuts if I'd done so.

AE35Unit · 3rd January 2009, 04:54 PM

yea youre right there Urs, on bith counts

Rosemary · 3rd January 2009, 05:03 PM

This is a Balga plant, AE. A plant that grows about 1 inch in every 100 years. Way back when the first convicts arrive, they saw all of these plants on the hill side and thought that they were the 'native black boys' with spears in their hands! Of course the name had to be changed not too long ago, so as to be politically correct!

Some of them are about 30 feet tall, and maybe have three or four 'branches' spreading out, each with its own 'spear'

Walnuts?
