 It has been a couple weeks since the last update.  Here are a few photos coinciding with winter's end.

   From before the days of Aristotle it was thought that certain animals spontaneously generated under the right conditions.  It wasn't until the mid-19th century, through the work of Louis Pasteur and John Tyndall, that fruitflies, mice and raccoons stopped materializing from decaying fruit, grain and sunflower seeds respectively.  I imagine the recipe went something like this.......

   Step 1- Place sunflower seeds in large container with unsecured lid

   Step 2 -Leave overnight in cool dark area.

   Step 3 -Enjoy

Note : For Black Bear replace seeds with Broasted Chicken then place in a restaurant dumpster instead of garbage can

                

   A party can still spontaneously arise when a dog wears a hat.  Whether he gets invited to the party is another matter.
