Part 1: A Wonderful Day: Tiny Things

        Today while the others girls and Mom enjoyed a scroll through Facebook, I went out for a walk in the brisk, clear November day. The temperature was about 56 degrees, the ground warm enough to forget the shoes. I took the camera and was off to picture the day.
        This part 1 is almost completely dedicated to close-ups of moss and other little plants. I am taking Biology this year and the authors have made one particular point very clear, "There is no such thing as a simple life form." Even single-celled organisms are extremely complex, I suppose so because the cell itself is so intricate. God is an amazing Creator and master Designer.

Now maybe you've seen enough moss...

Here's a squirrel I saw on my adventure.
