The image looks like some sort of sacred druid thing ~ an unidentified holy symbol against an ancient castle, symbolic bird and network of branches. Enigmatic and lovely.
Thank you - did you spot the two little biplanes as well... they were buzzing around together like this.
The quiz is really funny. I especially like #8!
I like #5 :)
And that picture is crazy! (I mean that as a compliment)
The illo is complex and mystical--I like it. The trivia facts are very fun and kind of silly which fits Mama says Om's theme this week :-)
Wandering Coyote - I was wondering where I could buy one ;-)
Viking054 - it doesn't say that those birds get to where they want to go does it? And thanks for the crazy compliment too.
Nan - I've been avoiding joining in with more themes and challenges but I'm happy to know I've done one by accident!
there must be some mystery or power enveloping the colored glass window that it flashes and comes out of the frame to attract birds and send them messages.
i've tried the trivia and it was funny what they've said about isay
You're famous! :-D

# GG is physically incapable of sticking her tongue out!
Is this true?
Reluctant Nomad - does that make me a squid?
hi there - I tried that test & apparently all of the animals in the WORLD belong to me! I love it!
I saw your comment at Melba's too - I tell ya, there'll be a girl on a plane from the UK so fast when all of that happens - this community is SO amazing!!!
Megg - lucky you! When I put Megg in I get, amongst others:
Finding Megg on Christmas morning is believed to bring good luck.
Wouldn't it be odd if we met for the first time there... when we are only about 100 miles apart in the uk!
Hi Caroline...thanks for popping by and your words of support during my spotty phase. Interesting game this...thanks for sharing.
There are now actually SEVEN towns in the U.S. named Caro's Lines. One just popped up in South Texas. Fyi.
