Spiky Squares – At Spring Valley

This will probably be my last hurrah for the Spiky Squares Photo Challenge unless something unexpected presents itself before the end of the month. This has been a fun challenge and has certainly prompted me to look at things from a whole different perspective.  Thanks Becky!

Some spikey squares from Spring Valley Nature Center in Schaumburg. Hopefully I’ll be seeing more of the outdoors in the weeks to come, now that Spring is finally here.

Coming To A Point – At The Chicago Botanic Garden

Going through the photo files looking for spiky, pointy or otherwise sharp and jagged objects for Becky’s Spiky Squares photo challenge, I came across a few from the Chicago Botanic Garden.

Spiky Squares – At The Domes

Here are a few more spiky cactus squares for Becky’s Photo Challenge, this time at The Domes in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Getting The Point – At The Field Museum

Here is my second entry for Becky’s Spiky Squares photo challenge.  One of the best places to study nature in the Chicago area during the winter months is the Field Museum and this has to be one of their earliest exhibits;  those giant battling African elephants with their pointy tusks.  We had a great family day out there on Saturday.

Spiky Squares at the Chicago Botanic Garden

Becky has designated March as Spiky Squares month so here are a few spiky squares from the Chicago Botanic Garden’s greenhouses.
