Maple Tree Helicopter Seeds

I learned a lot by checking online for information about the seeds of the maple tree that are designed to fly with the breeze.

This site I found was full of photos that were very helpful - http://tinyurl.com/zlg9qj8

Fabulous! How many times I thought of photographing them, no luck! And amazingly, we also called them 'helicopters'... When a baby, my oldest son just loved them, and to see how they flew... BV
