It's a Good Day...

...to be a snail!

...to be a spice bush flower...

...to be a toothwort bud...

...to be a blister beetle...

...to be a water drop on blue cohosh...

...to be a salamander egg mass...

...to be a trout lily leaf...

...to be a Glory-of-the-Snow flower...

  ...to be a gander goose waiting on your new family to hatch...
