The Carrot/Prehistoric Invertebrate

 

I have long thought that whoever came up with those bags of peeled, cut baby carrots was a genius—he basically turned carrots into potato chips.

Most of the carrots look pretty much the same, but recently I found one that looks like something from the Burgess Shale.  (That’s probably because of the weird strands at one end that resemble antennae, or mouthparts, or something.)

Here is another picture of a Red-shouldered Hawk, a species which I attempted to photograph a few years ago.
