Description

Childhood memories abound of these magically spinning Maple "helicopters":) There was a fierce wind two days ago which turned the backyard into a gigantic and wonderful spin-o-thon as zillions twirled their way to the ground. I now know I need to gather bucks for a digital movie camera. They also look a tad bit to me like those betta Siamese Fighting Fish sans the color. "The helicopter seeds are a carefree day; a childhood caught in a moment. I have discovered wonder." George Halitzka

They were always fun to see as a child. I guess whatever tree these are from does not grow anywhere near me now.
