Well, I've done some strange things but pokin critter poop to get seeds ain't one of them

And it's too cold for coconuts here.

Bob, if I found some dock seed could I grow a dock

Great !!!! Now I need a pond

This picture may give you more clues but like I said to begin with; this is a little weird

I guess I was not correct in my guess.

Now Joan, I thought everyone had heard of dock, also called burdock

The seed do look just like the ones you have pictured.
dock : any of a genus (Rumex) of the buckwheat family of coarse weedy plants.

No porkypines, Dan.

This is the scene of the incident. The black fabric in the other pics is geo-textile that I'm using for an outdoor carpet next to my little camper

SwampDonkey, you were so close to identifing the seeds. You should look at them again

Bob, you're right about the seeds resembling seeds of the buckwheat family. Is burdock what we call 'burrs' ? The size of a marble, velcro bush

Pine nuts

Hmm, she must be camping under some big white pine and the seeds landed on the fabric, so she's been sweeping the fabric for white pine seed.

Hmm, well didn't I mention that one before? Hmm, I think she's mess'n with us.

Look to be too big for white pine though. Hmm, gotta cogitate.

SwampDonkey · « **Reply #27 on:** October 02, 2006, 12:56:49 pm »

Well it's gotta be some kind of grain or weed seed. Not wheet, not barley, not oats and probably not rye. Hmmm I still think the seed is dropping on that fabric and she's harvesting it there. I'm wondering if its a sedge or rush seed.

OK, I'll go with maple, sugar or red. Or box elder.

Just for SD, another seed pic with dimes for size comparison

You guys are getting colder and colder. The seeds have a noticable and pleasant smell. Guess I'm gonna have to just explain, eh?

Those are Canadian dimes in there

I do not know what they are, but they are not maple.

They aren't Mango either.

BBTom · « **Reply #32 on:** October 02, 2006, 09:58:01 pm »

They look like small Beechnut to me.

SwampDonkey · « **Reply #33 on:** October 02, 2006, 10:03:32 pm »

Are the seeds legal?

Riles · « **Reply #34 on:** October 02, 2006, 10:39:11 pm »

Avocado. I understand they don't grow so big up north.

You guys are getting silly, now

Does this mean you give up

There is a new clue in the last picture

Tom · « **Reply #37 on:** October 02, 2006, 11:48:21 pm »

The Canadian dimes? You mean they are imported?

Paul_H · « **Reply #38 on:** October 03, 2006, 08:07:07 am »

Abies balsamea ?

We have Abies amabilis which is commonly called Balsam
here and the pitch sure smells good!

Mutant stick tites that came out of the dryer vent screen?
