Are you in awe?

a photo blog

If you really stopped and watched Mother Nature you may be surprised as to what you may learn about creation. If you were to watch a bird follow its instincts to fly south for the winter, see a squirrel yell at cat, or watch grass grow, you would start appreciating creation again.  There is some true to the saying... stop and smell the roses.

 

This picture is of a very interesting "weed" growing in my yard.  It's beautiful flowers open up when it is sunny and close up during the rain.  After the rain we had I went out and took pictures and caught the flower after it closed itself up. This is a natural reaction for this plant and I find it very impressive.

And there are still people who say that plants have no feelings ...!?!
They need nutrition and fluid, air and light as well as humans and animals.
Yes you are so right we could learn so much from Mother Nature if only we took the time to watch.

Thanks dear friend for these wonderful thoughts and beautiful picture.
I very much enjoyed the read and fully agree with everything you say ...

Thumb up!

One can only be fascinated by what Mother nature has in store for us.
I am not a plant, but I do take time for ants.
And when I can, I like to watch and feel
the morning sun rise.
