    One of my babies feeding

    nBZPi7y.mp4

    I just bought one like that!
    I’ve never had one before, hope I don’t kill it.

    Awesome! I have six now 😂 Somehow they've been thriving when all my *easy* plants seem to die

    I have just bought one too! It's just little - hope I manage to keep it alive

    I wouldn't believe the validity of this pic, if I didn't find it had won an award in Nikon's Small World. It looks like a crayon drawing.

    It's a microscopic image of a sea cucumber & the "anchors", apparently, line the entire outside of these creatures. Amazingly fake looking, impressive nature.

    This is a fungus colony (the red "sun") in a spoonful of soil. Reminds me of a painting on Japanese rice paper. I guess fungus & dirt are beautiful.

    Some of mine were very small and sad looking when I got them, and would appear to die, but they came back bigger and stronger ☺️

    Oh my, that's really heart breaking isn't it? I wish they'd completely abolish animal captivity(I even cringe having to leash my dogs at times). As a child, I loved visiting zoos. As an adult, I see the other side. :(

    Fungus colonies & soil... or Japanese rice paper paintings?

    Yuk, yuk, yuk...

    I'll see myself out.

    These are microscopic images of water droplets, in the scenarios listed. Dr. Fujiwara was the one conducting these particular experiments. Makes ya wonder... the impact of words, sounds, looks we give others... either good or bad... they all have a profound impact.

    Should we be talking to our gardens if they're looking a little flustered?

    I do!✋🏽😀 I tell my plants how pretty they are and what a good job they’re doing. To get better soon if they’re looking sad and I also thank them when I take their little goodies. They’re alive so why not?🤷🏽‍♀️

    Nope. I just looked it up & apparently all rodents rarely contract rabies. Given how & where they live, etc., I thought they'd be the most rabid.

    Give us another one!

    I'd seen & done experiments with water & plants. They're living things. It's amazing.

    I talk to animals, why not plants, too. But, if you see me talking to a glass of water, call my mum.

    Some water experiments are done by just writing the word/s on paper & placing it under the container, or writing it directly on the container. Others are done by holding the water glass & "sending" those words silently to the water.

    I put notes underneath (or intentions into) all my drinking containers. Same with food. It's a blessing, in essence. Never hurts. :smile:
