Blog for the not so beautiful things out there
16.5 years ago birds, potatoes, slugs
I see many blogs showing pictures of pretty flowers and cute little animals, when I was going on a nature hike today with my youngest daughter I came across some things that were interesting but not exactly beautiful which deserved some recognition.
If I saw this guy in my garden I probably wouldn’t be an inclined to stop and take his picture.
Uh, just a fly on a leaf…
Well potatoes are not that pretty so guess I wouldn’t expect the flowers to look much better

I am just glad that slug wasn’t in my garden that thing was huge, but since banana slugs live up to 3 years I guess if he was commited he could trek the 3 miles to my garden…I agree fruit/vegetable flowers are that extra bonus since you are getting the fresh produce as well. I had some pictures of cilantro flowers in this post.

That is a good looking critter. The ones in Southern Maryland are about as ugly as sin, a nasty beige with striations. I’ve always wondered if they were edible. Maybe dipped in batter and deep fried?
