    The clearest of all - looks like Ra. And that looks like feathers.

    nope, nope

    no feathers, nowhere; for me a clear picture must have a piece of sky

    thanks on the glass- portions of the art/lead glass panels flanking the door at a local pizza joint. couldn't get the whole panels so I cropped out some wallpaper. :)

    according to purists, these aren't stained glass since the color wasn't added to the glass as a picture, but bits of pre-colored glass assembled to form a picture. Yep, another trade I've worked at.

    most people use the term 'stained glass' for all the types, though.

    okay, I'm getting tired. Here is a new HINT :

    2 others of the Fauna family will be able to fly and 1 other of the Fauna family would like to fly

    We may have to wait for you to wake up later. I'll give it a new try after a while. Maybe some of the others will be on then.

    Well, they may not look like planets to you, but they are identical to the ten planets in my home system.

    Too round. none of your worlds spin?

    Yes, they spin. But since they are oblong to begin with, the roration causes them to be round.

  12. It must be really late or something because this thread is making no sense to me at all. But then after the "I don't care" thread not much of anything is making any sense. So......I'm going to bed cause I have any early Dr appt tomorow. Night everyone. (Maybe by the time I get back someone will have figured out the answers to the flora/fawna puzzle :))

    I'm just barely able to keep notes occasionally- hard day working on plugged drains and making camera attachments when I needed a break.

    Major pain. Like, all over.

    But it had to be done. (yep, I do know drain, waste and vent. Professionally. up close and personal. gaa.)

    If the logic tree resolves to a list, I'll post it. Probably somebody will nail it before then. Not much attention span, sorry.

    I understand , Goody, it's not my best day either. Take care.

    Not my worst, but not good. at least I got the panorama offset plate built and the 90 degree mount usable if not finished.

    Or my mood would be even worse. [sigh]

    Graylox, what happened to your game? It's been 10 hours since anyone has posted and 23 hours since the last guesses! My hubby decided to give it a try. Below are his guesses.

    Fauna
    Af3
    Di
    Hu2
    Ka
    Ra
    We

    Flora
    Bl
    Gr
    Pu2
    Ra2

    I haven't checked these against any of the other tries yet. That's your job! :)

    Posted 4 months ago #
  18. Well I started trying to compare our guesses in order to try to get the answers but it's way too hard, so here's another try...
    Fawna: AF3, Hu2, Ka, Ra, We
    Flora: the rest.

    Sorry for not caring about this game for such a long time, I'm not really on board - or something like that.

    The hubby guess : Fauna : 4 right, Flora 2 right
    Buckleys' guess : Fauna : 4 right
    Please remember that Pu2 is open to public, thanks to Goody

    What-is-it - GRAY # 09 - A Hairy Affair
    All hints summarised :

    - Among the "pets" are 2 primates
    - 3 of the pics have the same number in the name;
    - 2 of these pics are very similar:
    - 1 of them has the same object as a pic, presented by Goody very shortly.
    - there are 10 pictures, 6 Fauna, 4 Flora; 1 of them is little tricky
    that is not the dark one and not the pink one, but it is the "clearest" of all
    - no feathers, nowhere; for me a clear picture must have a piece of sky
    - 1 of the Fauna family is able to fly
    - 2 others of the Fauna family will be able to fly and
    - 1 other of the Fauna family would like to fly
    - Please remember that Pu2 is open to public, thanks to Goody

    new:
    1 of the pets would fit into Paulga's basket

    Planets are not flora OR fauna. They are mostly mineral and/or gas.

    first, CP, using this planet as an example (and excluding you as either F) planets can be mostly gas and 'minerals' and still include flora and fauna. Major biota.

    next, lessee if my logic is as trashed as I think it is:

    fauna af3 hu2 We Bl Gr Di

    flora pu2 Ra2 Ka Ra

    Speak for your own solar system.

    Hi, Goody, back again? You have 3 "pets" right and at the floral side, you have only pu2 again right.

    not very back, but that might give me the rest.

    and I was speaking for my own solar system.

    new hints:
    1 of the primates -the tricky pic- doesn't climb on trees any more, it's the same, which would like to fly into the blue sky

    2 of the "animals" are near relatives look at the short names

    I think these are the last hints ???

    fauna Ra2 Ka Ra af3 hu2 Bl
    flora pu2 Gr Di We

    that better? and as in rabbit rabbit2?

    Goody : Fauna 5 right, Flora 3 right
    no rabbit,
    HINT......HINT......HINT......HINT
    the short names are -of course- German except 2 of them : 1 is Latin and 1 is American-English-Yiddish

    I pretty much flunked latin, other than english all I know is invective.

    I didn't literally mean rabbit, just a word starting in ra.

    only 2 ways to go, so:

    fauna Ra2 Ka Ra af3 hu2 We
    flora pu2 Gr Di Bl

    I got my eyes irritated by some of the cr*p I had to use on the drains so I'm treating this as a logic puzzle- I can't make out the pix.

    I'm lousy at it, but you gotta use the tools you have.

    Goody :
    HINT......HINT......HINT
    That floral Latin word is very common and can be close to your heart

    Yes with "just a word starting in ra"
    Fauna: 5 right , Flora: 3 right
