Quail Eggs & Cucumber

Mom was working in her garden yesterday morning and came across this nest of quail eggs. Unfortunately, Mamma Quail had already abandoned this nest and so the eggs weren't viable, but it is still neat to look at.

Mamma Quail put these eggs right under a very large cabbage leaf. They were well camouflaged and protected. I wonder why she had to abandon them.

This is a cucumber. Usually when they grow they straighten out but this one never did. It almost looks like a giant cut worm. I'm so excited that the plants from the garden are producing veggies. It's so yummy to have all that fresh food.
