Songaia Blog Post #2 (The Sequel), by Uncooked Kale

I have seen so many different types of beetles these past few weeks. I’m thinking of getting/making an ID book for reference. I’d love to be able to learn more about different types and be able to identify them. ​

We went to the Beacon Food Forest (I want to live as a frog in their swamp potatoes it was such a cute spot and if I was a frog I wouldn’t need to think about money and oh gods why am I not a frog but I wouldn’t have thumbs and that would be annoying and wait do frogs have thumbs?). I enjoyed the tour, especially getting to try some new plants. Even though I hated most of them. Especially the one that tasted like weird meat stew. A plant tasting like bone broth is cool, but I hated it so much, it just felt wrong. Like a dog hissing.

In the parking lot I saw this feather, I regret not grabbing it. If anyone knows what bird this may have come from, please tell me! ​

Plums. As you could most likely tell. But y’know if you couldn’t tell, these are plums. 


I think we picked about 20 pounds. 26? There were three large bowls full by the end. Either way I was surprised as it was a small tree that had already been picked from recently. ​

I’m planning on drawing this but the detail overwhelms my brain. ​

Sorry I’m not writing a lot, I’ve been working on a project! (coming soon to a garden near you) I’ve also been sick which is not fun. 
I wonder if frogs get runny noses… 
Do frogs have noses? 
Do I even know what a frog is? Why can’t I answer these simple questions? ​

Thank you for sharing! Interesting questions on frogs. Can the reptilian brain appreciate beauty or is a cerebral cortex required? I would find it hard to live without beauty.

I have several excellent books on insect identification. Hit me up when I'm done being sick, or send me a text and I'll leave them on my porch for you.

The ultimate result was three big bowls full. In any case, the fact that it was a little tree that had just been harvested astonished me.
