Motherly Bond



Motherly bond!

The mom and the ducklings had wandered off to the busy street near the mall.
The curb was too tall for the babies to climb and the mom won't leave them behind at any cost.
My heart melted seeing them cuddle with her as she protectively sat there against the curb.

Dahlia with hidden flames



Dahlia

I was captivated by the half curled and half unfurled petals of this beautiful flower. Only did I notice the flames like center, later in the picture.
Made me think....
How sparks of emotions are contained inside...
Hidden from the outside  world.
How we need to pay closer attention to make them out.
But how pretty are they, once found out.

Waxberries



Waxberry (Yangmei)
Tangy with a hint of sweet
Very juicy with a mid seed

I have only seen them in Shanghai but I think they are found in other parts of the world as well. 
They have high health benefits that include a boost to the immune system.
