The mystery blob is still floating near the edge of the beaver dam. It’s way bigger than a basketball. We still have no idea what it is, so I’m going to send a picture of it to my friend, whose husband Mike, may know.
The other day when we were getting ready to go to town, this thing had climbed through the open window and was just laying there near the shifter. No idea what kind of caterpillar it is or where it came from. It was big, green and had strong suction cup feet.
And then there’s this thing. I don’t know what the heck it is. When it flies it looks like the outline of a star. When it’s on a leaf or grass, it looks part dragonfly. I’ve looked in my butterfly book and in my insect field guide and couldn’t find anything that looks like this. Maybe I should send this picture to Mike too.
Want to see a tall flower? This thing has got to be 8 feet tall.

Love the picture of Molly in front of the banner. That thing near the gear shift would have freaked me out!
So it wasn't a basketball after all eh? Let us know what you find out.
