Your pics are as good as sig226’s! LOL
The local squirrels chew branches off the maples in spring when they’re covered in seed pods. If I can remember and pick some up, the “helicopters” make great fall decorations.
;o)
We don’t have Maples here..thus miss the lovely colors...I have some great seed pods collected at my daughters (pea like pods pop open to red beans and some from a now removed “take over” junk tree down in the ravine..I collected some gum balls when I lived in California..Love to find something for autumn and winter .
GG, how do you use the little helicopters as decorations. I have a lot of those floating down from the poplar trees. The poplar trees are beautiful but they are always dropping something to the ground. I enjoy their beauty and shade in summer but cleaning up after them is something else.
