The post below is by guest blogger, Derrell Bradford.
I was looking for this picture of a koi I used to have but I could not find it. Back in the day I used to think koi were just goldfish—old and grown up—but I have since been told that isn’t true.
I don’t really take piscine pics but I do take flowers photos sometimes…and other things. So here are three of the former, including the Black-Eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta) of my home state Maryland, and a pic out of my window when I am taking an insanely early train to DC for one of our team meetings. Hope you enjoy.
Thanks to Eduwonk for the space this week. Stay frosty people.
