Revelation

Since I mentioned the pod-opening I thought I'd show the result.  Amazing to think they will all turn black and escape through the 'vents' one day (you can tell I'm not a biologist!).

  1. Well I've never seen the inside of a poppy before. Amazing to think these little white things will turn black and produce hundreds of new poppies! Thanks for sharing this photo. Blessings, Pamela

  4. You may not be a biologist but I can tell you have a curious mind, just like me. Being fascinated by what we find is more important than knowing all about what we find. Thanks for sharing this photo, giving us an inside look.
