Gerard, GREAT JOB!!!
I love that you knew the white was mycelium... and that the flakey stuff on the tree was lichen... and that the inside of that avocado seed is endosperm! I love the moss and cool that you found the cicada exoskeleton... I hear out east on the Island the trees are actually bending over they are so heavy with cicadas... I want to see that! And please, please tell me that you were allowing that snail to crawl on your hand. If so, you get a gold star for that one! Usually my students are too squeamish! And that is an endotherm with VERY BIG EARS :-)
GREAT JOB!
