Filigree

Today, feeling somewhat better I decided to clear some of the old plant pots from the greenhouse.  Plants had been left in them over the winter and had not survived.  As I was emptying onto the compost is saw a Chinese Lantern that had disintegrated down to the filigree form.  It is amazing how this had survived on the compost and not been trodden down by the cat or any other little animal looking for food.
I am hoping tomorrow I feel better again otherwise I think I will have to be on the phone for a Dr's appointment.
