Columbine, Shortspur (Aquilegia brevistyla) - 13a
(Columbine, Shortspur (Aquilegia brevistyla) - 13a) We found it interesting that the 1/4 inch long spurs of shortspur columbine develop their full size even before the bud opens.  Note the way the part of each petal that forms the spur pushes up between the sepals.

lamb-right lamb-left Presented here are just a few of the countless components of God's creation.  Just as we cannot have human and animal life without water and plants, neither can we have lasting peace without love and compassion.  It is our hope and prayer that this series will motivate people to live and act in a cruelty-free manner; that we would no longer hurt or destroy each other, the animals or our environment.
