View attachment 6155936Good morning!! This is my view as I write this post.

First wifi in 14 hours - will catch up on posts later today but here is my critter post of today!

Not everybody like bugs or other invertebrate critters but can we accept them on scarves?

I Think nobody objects to butterflies, like the classic Farandole or the wing on L’esprit de foret ?

And lady bugs can hardly bug us either? But what about crickets, mantis or flies? Or spiders! Do you reject - or embrace a scarf due to it’s insects or spiders?

Are there any scarves with worms, maggots, millipedes, cockroaches or any other bug we may consider unlikeable?

Some invertebrates are contrary to these considered delicious ( though I have tasted quite nice and crispy crickets and fried larvae).
But some invertebrates we really want to eat! The lobsters, oysters, octopus, langusts and shrimps. They are found both as parts of elaborate meals and in their natural environment in the designs.

Let us be spineless today and celebrate the invertebrates - both the Nice and the no-ways!

And another little critter quiz

Wish you a day of smooth waters!
Thank you Echidna for this prickling post today. I will find something, later. But I spotted a moose this morning, even several! Hope your day will be eventful.

Thank you so much for the story behind, i did have it but in French, I will paste this version in my file. And yes, I do have the mastic/gris bleuté too, my original "placeholder" that I ended up keeping because, so beautiful, hence breaking one of my rules (isn't that an upcoming SOTD theme?): "no multiples in the same format", particularly because it's a very close cw. Oh well, different enough!
OMG-- I am going to have to hide in a dark cave during rule-breaking week! I was lucky to have a tresure trove of scarf booklets in English and some in French given to me a few years ago so I have been slowly organizing my scarf stories into an English file @FA73.

At the Audubon Insectarium in New Orleans they do serve tasty bugs for intrepid adventurers to try in their cafeteria. Some of my grandchildren have been brave but so far I have resisted the temptation to munch on a fried worm or chocolate covered cockroach! I do love a good lobster roll, though! Thank you for another delightful post and your illustrative scarves @HermesEchidna. Safe travels home.
 
Hello dear scarfies,
My scarf with the most insects is La Vie au grand Air. It is old and battered and has some stains which will never part but I love it deeply. Although it is not a popular scarf, it is very special in its naturalism. The birds all have a blanc matte overlay which turn their plumage opalescent and produce a three dimensional effect. 1000020615.webp1000020616.webp1000020624.webpThe insects have small touches of this overlay as well and look so real that they make me itch. 1000020617.webp1000020618.webp1000020620.webpAnd the flowers seem to come right out of a drawing book by Maria Sibylla Merian.1000020629.webp1000020631.webp

That’s a cool sight, thank you for sharing. Local honey is healthy and tasty. Your styling of this scarf is so good. We have bees who moved in at the corner of the house. 🐝
I am glad you kept yours! After all, you are the reason I have it...I love it on blue and have it in rotation in the summer a lot @Maedi. Thank you. And better bees than wasps in the corner of the house!

Love the detail and what a great green border @darkstar66 -- who is the artist and do you mind sharing it flat? Thank you!
