Liam got a new telescope from his book order from school. Magnification up to 50x. He spent an hour today looking through it at the nature in the backyard and making the observations below. Nobody asked him to. He just thought it would be fun. Oh. Yeah. And he's 7. [To be fair - I did correct some of his spelling errors!]

Pine bush log up close is orange from sunlight.

Tree’s leaves look like faces when looking through the holes in the openings.

When a bunch of leaves up close are moving in the wind, it looks like the leaves are joining together in the millions.

The colorful leaves look like a beautiful art picture.

Up close, leaves look like huge nuts in the grass.

Cuts in the big tree, make the tree look like a nice tan smooth piece of a log.

Branches look like big snakes slithering to the trees.

The leaves in the background make all the leaves swirl violently
