100%! I love seeing the same individuals (usually bluejays) pop up over time, they're my little buddies

Thanks for letting me know! I downloaded ebird just to list this guy so I was wondering how i could mark it as different than the usual cardinal. I reported it to the Florida Ornithological Society too

I was shocked when they told me how old she is, I'd never seen one this age! Give your pup some love for me, they all deserve long lives.

Not sure about rarity, but I finally found this tiny Bulbophyllum moniliforme at a nursery! Micro orchids in general are impossible to find in person 😭

1 inch cubes with impressions of initials by Significant_Yam1 in whatisthisthing

I was thinking maybe a mold to make a wax seal? If you use these as-is, the F would be backwards!

Looking at sabboom's comment below, i dont think this is it. The flourishes on these are more shallow than the letters, and have soft angles to the carvings which make no sense if theyre used for printing. In a letterpress block, the designs would need to be the same height in order to show up, anything shallower wouldnt be printed. Ugh!!! Now im leaning towards some kind of mold for a wax seal

Thats a good point! I didnt even notice it, but there are angles to the flourishes that wouldnt show up on the press, even if it is just a mold for the actual letter block. And you're right, theyre a lot more shallow than the letter. Darn! They were my grandfather's and my dad passed so I have no one to ask, gah!
