Interesting, balding head, specialized antenna tuned to some frequency that the Electronic Engineers could define, and the tips of the wings are like raveling cloth. Photographed by a woman who temporarily was dangerously elevated in life. Brenda, you have given me food for thought as I sip my first coffee of the day.

I am familiar with what a British "conservatory" is because my British friend from UHH, Heather, explained it. "a greenhouse, esp one attached to a house. another word for conservatoire. This protects the plants from the chilling wind and daily drizzle.

A conservatory is now considered an extra room on your house for sitting or dining or whatever you want it for. Of course, plants often are added as an adornment. I do grow my seedlings in ours in the Spring. Thanks for responding.

Brenda, job well done. Please be sure to have three points of contact with your body when using a ladder and avoid standing on anything that is not intended to be stood on (Start Safe - Stay Safe).
