The "elegant bird" and the orange flower appear to me particularly sculpture-friendly.

Wouldn't their metal counterparts -- if only there were some ;-D -- work wonderfully as garden, lawn, yard sculpture?

Thank you for your comment below, in answer to my previous observation and question.

Some Unitedstatesians perhaps more and more tend toward artificial trees.

Would British Isles-ers tend more toward artificial or real Christmas trees?

That's so convenient and impressive that civil and crown services involve identical conditions and pay.

So that means that if your and your wife's youngest son moves back and forth between civil and crown services such movement matters not at all in terms of the ultimate amount and availability of his pension, correct?

Such movement perhaps offers Unitedstatesians problems likelier in the private sector than the public.

Might the non-governmental agencies that crown service musters mean private- or public-sector pensions?

Extinct, isolate and undecipherable languages intrigue me.

Is there -- among east-ponder agencies, institutions, organizations or peoples -- any artifact or any document, associated with the British Isles or brought from somewhere else, that invokes any one of the three situations above?

So Shakespearean geography in turn must be taken by us as lightly as he "took his Geography lightly: -- ;-D -- !

Would Fleance therefore have wended his way -- accidentally or deliberately -- to somewhere other than Wales even as Wales perhaps was the destination wanted by the English bard?

Please excuse me if this observation and this question appear twice even as the computer attached something about my message not being saved.

Cheesy, tacky, ugly jumpers almost cry out to be collected.

Is there such a thing as an agency, an institution, an organization or a person who is involved in cheesy, tacky, ugly jumper-collecting?

Wouldn't the aforementioned work wonderfully in a clothing-styles, clothing-trends museum?

The best cheesy, tacky, ugly jumpers almost cry to be collected.

Might there be some agencies, institutions, organizations, people or persons who manage modern, old, retro collections of such jumpers?

Please excuse me if this observation and this question appear twice here even as the computer perhaps attempted a successful, perhaps an unsuccessful save a few minutes ago.

Unitedstatesian men sometimes incline less to septum-piercing ornamentation even as Unitedstatesian women perhaps sometimes incline more so.

Is the same range of concerns that matter to septum-pierced women matter-able to septum-pierced men?

Unitedstatesian men perhaps incline less to septum piercings than Unitedstatesian women.

Is the same range of concerns applicable to septum-pierced men as to septum-pierced women?

The computer crashed before I commenced another component of the Virginia-bluebells description below.

The eastern native of North America amasses 5-inch- (13-centimeter-) long, gray-green leaves with entire, smooth, unindented, untoothed margins and with 24-inch- (60-centimeter-) long stems.

The summer-seeding spring flower arranges itself natively, in large groups, in moist, nutrient- and plant-rich woods on low, wooded hillsides.

The aforementioned borage-family member therefore beautifies cultivated shade gardens and wild shade expanses in Kansas southeastward to Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia and in Georgia northeastward into Maine and north-central-ward into Quebec and Ontario, Canada.

That plucky pretty flowering plant has quite an interesting range, right?

Cold, long- and wet-winter weather here throughout the United States advise us all to amass beanie hats for January, possibly February, possibly March.

Your green-colored hats particularly amount to an auspicious buy even as they assure appropriate warm-headedness all the way through St. Patrick's Day!

Wouldn't the Decky snowflake roll-up beanie, the Marmot Men's retro pom hat and the Neff men's retro skull cap work wonderfully -- for men and ;-D women -- for their greenness of environmental sustainability, spring hopes and wishes and St. Patrick's Day?

Tovah Martin, in The indestructible houseplant, advises us about appropriate light, nutrients, soil pH, temperature and watering.

The aforementioned authoress considers two other influences that, like the above, configure happy health to houseplants.

Atmospheric moisture and night-time temperatures matter!
They must matter to fruit trees too, mustn't they?

La Nina ("the girl child") years in the United States are supposed to avoid dryness, shortness, warmness in northern parts even as they are supposed to award southern parts with dry, short, warm winters.

Northern parts indeed experience these days cold, long, wet, wintry weather! And perhaps southern parts atypically experience them too this weekend ;-[!

It might mean that everyone everywhere might be buying St. Patrick's Day-themed beanie hats for January and February, mighn't it?

My English paternal grandmother always chose as day-in, day-out footwear chunky-, high-heeled tie shoes, British Isles-er style.

The aforementioned footwear generally configured darker colors such as black and brown.

But mightn't they make an unusual pair of wedding-dance shoes in cream-white colors?

Thank you for your comment below, on June 6, 2017, in answer to my previous, same-day observation and question.

Virginia bluebells (Mertensia virginica) achieve bell-shaped, nodding flowers at the very end of arched stems. They acquire sky-blue colors even as they admit pink colors sometimes and white colors rarely and even as they always admit pink flower buds.

The flower base adopts a bell-top, fused appearance from five fused, shallow floral lobes even as feminine parts and five stamens also adorn it.

Flowering times agree with mid-spring months even as pollinating times by bee flies, butterflies, flower flies, hummingbird moths, hummingbirds and long-tongued bumblebees agree with late spring and seeding times of seeded, wrinkled nuts align with early-summer months.
