We had a leftover sweet potato which we planted and placed in a window pot. The plant is loving it there, sending up its vines to try to take over the house:

Photograph of a window taken from inside the house. The window is covered in white horizontal blinds, with valances at top and bottom bearing a leafy pattern. A crystal hangs in the top center. Growing along the right side is a slim vine bearing a few spade-shaped leaves.

Spotted in a tree while walking through the neighborhood: wheel bug (𝘈𝘳𝘪𝘭𝘶𝘴 𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘴) eggs!

An oval green leaf with serrated edges being held still by a hand wearing glittery gold and pink nail polish. On the leaf is a dark dot, smaller than a fingertip, with something like honeycomb on its surface.

A closeup on the dot from the first picture. It is a tiny blob of brownish jelly with a honeycomb-like structure of small cells on its surface.
