July 27th - Elephant Trick

I don't know why this is called elephant "trick".  I don't have any tricks, but I do have some interesting facts:

They cool off by fanning their ears. This cools the blood in their ears. That blood goes to the rest of their body and cools off the elephant.

They poop 80 pounds in one day.

I could put more, but after all that poop, what more do you really need to know? 

July 26th - American Woodcock

This is one of my favorite birds so far.  The feet and feathers are very cool.  I just like him, plus, he stands up on his own....always a plus!

July 23-25th - Box Top & Bottom from a Blintz

This fold pattern would be a good one to know for when you have a little gift to give someone.  Not only did you get them a nice little gift, but you made the box yourself!

July 22nd - Rowboat

I do like this little rowboat.  I think it looks pretty much like a rowboat should look.  I just need some little origami fishermen.

July 21st - Fraidy Cat

This one is weird and hard to see the face.  The nose is especially hard to make out.  Not one of my favorites.

July 20th - Hawaiian Shirt & Shorts

I could have done a better job at making this one, but I still think it is pretty cute.  I have only seen a shirt by itself before, so this dual set is pretty unique.

July 19th - Rabbit

First, I missed the end of July and all these posts are going to show up in August!  Aargh!  Oh well.  I have had them folded for weeks too! 

This is the Rabbit.  I don't like it much.  It is a little too goemetric for me.  But you can definitely see the animal there.
