While walking my dogs this afternoon, I spotted the thing shown here on the edge of the road. Would someone please tell me what it is?
It's about the size of a lima bean, but they are not around this time of the year, and never anywhere near that location. Moreover, lima beans don't have what appears to be a developing head. Bird embryos do, but they also aren't around this time of the year and are not green. And is that a blood vessel I see in the "anterior" region; and what are the "appendages" below what may be a developing head?
It's a mystery to me!
Norm
