More often than not a common find in the wild, has been for me anyway. I'm guessing these are on the somewhat smaller side? ×2 Asian (Japanese) pinchers....

×2 on Art's opinions....nice cat...

Yep, ×2 on a cork....×2 on snakes with a clear base glass too 👍

West Virginia Big Boys 😊

So close....she ducked her head as soon as I clicked

Seeing eyelashes in the 2nd pic?

I might say Vitro on both mibs at the top after looking again...

Top left corner is Vitro, thinking the rest are MK....

Time to chow on some Orville's extra buttery popcorn as we wait for opinions

All 3 appear to be Pelts, but I keep second guessing myself, especially on the 2nd mib...

Every marble is tough for a brand new collector. I've only been doing it for about a year and a half. There's others here that have been at it for 20 or 30 years. You'll definitely get better but like everyone else, you will almost certainly stumble on identification more often than not. This hobby is always a learning experience. Every day. But it's a blast. Wish I would have started years ago! Keep at it my friend! It gets better every day 😊👍

Mutant Sunflower...the little one is growing off the bigger one!

About 15 feet away, just have to get a few more feet closer with the right light for a better picture. She's by herself because she was displaying dominance at the "Cafe"....

Looking Pelt too me 😊

It's been fun, and a breath of fresh air, too get away from the same old "put marble on O-ring and shoot" scenario. Takes a few more minutes for setup but the results are way worth it.

Pelts in the Wild

I'll go there....

With the exception of the first pic, side and back...reaping the rewards of a crazy busy Spring 😊 The sapling I planted 2 years ago, a crab apple, and some of the long flowerbed and hillside flowerbed plants are perennial from last year.

A few more from the front 😊...it was alot of fun putting all these arrangements together one by one! Patty swears were not going to do as much next year but I saw her nose grow a hair with that statement!

Out front....

Out for a stroll at 7am....these are from the middle yard. Just love how things have taken off since June 19th!

Before the house next door was sold, about 5 years ago, there was a Koi pond behind it. The former owner is the Mayor of my small town and those crazy fish survived every winter outside. They also survived (for the most part), every incursion by raccoon and cat too. This pond was twice the size of yours, but still that's not overly huge. It is alot of work and maintenance though too put them in and keep them nice. I'll have to talk to Mark and Tonya, the couple who bought the house, too see if I can go behind the house for pics. I know they have done alot of work back there as the back yard is at the base of a hill upon which one of the town's water towers is upon. Stay tuned!
