Greenthumb's Scavenger Hunt

1. Woven

Scavenger hunts are so much fun! Boy do they ever make me think hard, but I do enjoy the challenge. Yep, twelve photos but this scavenger hunt happens only once a month. I am linking to Greenthumb, Saturday Critters and Shadow Shot 2 at the end of this post.

2.  Repeating

It's pretty the way the gingerbread trim repeats from post to post on this homes front porch.

3. Greedy

One sunflower seed was not enough for this woodpecker. I can't remember if it actually picked up more than two before it flew away, though.

4. Flowers

This obedient plant was blooming in my garden not so long ago. (sigh)

5. Curly

This was on the power lines. My husband told me what it was for but alas I cannot remember! I'm sure he'll tell me when he sees this post...but you can tell me too, if you know.

6. Adventures

This could have been #3 greedy. These guys can pack a LOT of treats in their cheeks. But these two chipmunks were also on a foraging adventure...and brave to walk up to a human hand even if it was filled with yummies.

7. Line (several, actually)

Hay ready to be bailed

8. Mesmerizing

What is it about a bonfire that makes it so appealing?

9. Triangle

Here's more gingerbread trim, which there's a lot of here on century-old homes north of Toronto.

10. Dreamy

Mists make the world look magical, dreamy...right?

11. Day

What a lovely day to be out in a canoe!

12. Whatever you want


Besides Greenthumb's Scavenger Hunt  HERE,

  1. These are all brilliant responses to the scavenger prompts; love the woven shadows in the first photo.

    Chipmunks are shameless and greedy, too bad they're so cute as well. =D

  8. Gosh, a lot of pictures and they are all lovely! This could have lasted you 12 days of posts!! Chippies are so cute. I thought my family of chippies who lived under my front steps were gone, but I saw one yesterday, so still there. Probably preparing for winter!

  9. Again, congratulations are in order. I don't know how you do these scavenger hunts. I don't think I'd have the patience for them. Maybe if I was a doctor, I'd have more patients?

    Great job!

  10. Beautiful pictures especially the ones of the animals. The woodpecker is a delight and I love that the chipmonks will feed out of your hand.

  11. Stunning photos! I just love the wicker and shadow for Woven, and I love the trim on the old houses. Those chipmunks sure were brave, and they're so adorable. What a beautiful part of the world you live in!

  12. you found a match for all twelve and all twelve are perfect. that curly cue is really cool. and the adventure with the chipmunks is what i would LOVE to do

    ReplyDelete
  13. That is a BIG scavenger hunt. I used to do one years ago but she didn't have so many to search out. I was hoping someone would say what the curly thing was for. I've never seen one of those.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I always love your interpretations of the scavenger hunts. I've never done one but it's something I'd like to try someday, although I feel I might be a little bland compared to a pro like you!

  15. You did very well in capturing each of the prompts.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Lovely shots, and that shadow is wonderful in the first photo!

  17. Awesome collection as always!!! I love them all and what a great way to start my weekend!!! Just the smiles I needed today! Hope you have a beautiful, fun weekend!!

  18. Love scavenger hunts! Thanks for introducing me to Greenthumb's I will play along in October.

  19. The trim on the houses particularly appeals to me. I've never seen munks do that... but they're busy this time of year getting stocked up for the winter, so they're allowed to be shameless and greedy!

    ReplyDelete
  20. That hard disk of yours must contain quite a substantial collection of brilliant photos!

    ReplyDelete
  21. WoW....these are all AWESOME!! each one was my favorite, until i viewed the next!! GREAT JOB!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  22. A wonderful series of photos!
    Chipmunks are exceptionally brave given their small size. We had some come up to us once when we were on vacation. We stopped at a roadside park to eat and discovered that they love grape jelly!
    Have a wonderful week-end!

  23. wow ... great selections for the scavenger hunt. Loved the greedy shot of the woodpecker ... such great detail. We don't have chipmunks here so it is fun for me to see them on your blog. Little guys! Happy weekend.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Very nice one and all. I wouldn't bring myself to do it but the one of the adventurous chipmunks is great.

  25. Hard to pick a favorite image here: brava!

    ReplyDelete
  26. Just beautiful, EGCG, from striking beginning to striking end! Greedy is wonderful ~ catching the woodpecker with a seed in its beak! Like you, I love the challenge of the scavenger hunt, and I especially love seeing all the different ways people respond to the prompts ~ like your curly; btw I have no clue what that thing on the wire is! Happy hunting in October!

  27. That looks like so much work, EG! Love all your answers!

  28. A wonderful, eclectic post. And that woodpecker image...so up close and personal....almost able to count the feathers. Amazing.

  36. Back again. I have fixed your SSS2 link so it reaches this post. The one you supplied was incomplete.

    ReplyDelete
  37. What a great collection of photos. I like them all as they are perfect for each topic.

  38. I thought you had me with the woodpecker, then you pulled the chipmunks on me. awwwwwwwwwww

    ReplyDelete
  39. Well, I found that the curly thing is a spiral diverter, but going to take some time to find out exactly what its job is.

    Love the gingerbread of course, and thought you did a wonderful job fitting pictures to what you were hunting for.

    ReplyDelete
  40. t first glance, it seems the curly thing is to make the power line visible to birds so there are fewer accidents...not sure if that is all though.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Gosh this was a tour de force. Big time! Just so well constructed of quality materials, wishes & ideas. Thanks for the time your put into this.
