Leaves are descended from dinosaurs.
They are vertebrates.
Although they appear to be cute, one must be cautious. They are wild creatures.
Leaves are territorial, and therefore can be tense when coming upon another species.
Introductions must be done carefully, much like cats and dogs.
Sometimes the interactions are not friendly.
Leaves protect themselves with large fleets of airborne vehicles. They are well-organized and can create havoc at certain times of the year.
Leaves reproduce in much the same way as homo sapiens. That is to say, they are delivered by storks.
There is great diversity in the leaf world: some baby leaves develop into fish-like creatures.
While others resemble birds.
Thank you for reading this science lesson. As you leave, please watch where you step.
laughing out loud until i snort! you are SUCH a goof! a creative goof, but a goof nonetheless! :)
ReplyDeleteI have a whole new level of appreciation for leaves, I had no idea :-)
ReplyDeleteThis post made me smile. :)

ReplyDeleteBest science lesson ever.
ReplyDeleteMind-boggling creativity.
ReplyDeleteamusing.
ReplyDeletePriceless.
ReplyDeleteTexWisGirl was busy. :) Love your sense of humor/scientific study.
ReplyDeleteI must start showing more respect for fallen leaves. My dogs like to roll in them,so I spend lots of time pulling them from their coats.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for the oh so kind comment you left for me today!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful post. It was not just the creativity behind it, but the running commentary that made me feel I was watching a documentary. Thanks, I really enjoyed this post.

Dear Everybody:
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind comments! And I promise you I am not under the influence of a single psychedelic drug. This is pure science, people. I love you guys.
How very clever and observant of you to see this. And have the presence of mind to capture it for ever.
ReplyDeleteSo creative! I like that you put art into ordinary things such as leaves and make them extraordinary and interesting. The captions too are funny.
ReplyDeleteLord have mercy! I am a murderer every time I step out my door. Crunch, crunch, crunch. Yikes!!
ReplyDeleteKerry, you should have been a teacher......!

Oh, this is utterly fantastic!
ReplyDeleteEnchanting story woven around a collage of incredibly shaped leaves.
ReplyDeleteVery fun, I really enjoyed this lesson
ReplyDeletechuckle chuckle!
ReplyDeleteThe details with the eyes and leaf shapes adds to the realism. I love the subdued colours and the expressions. Thank you for posting this a second time around for those of us who missed it the first time. It hasn't lost meaning, interest nor has it faded these three years later.
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda! So glad you dropped by!
