Here Kitty Kitty - a photo on Flickriver

Here Kitty Kitty

            My normal ungraceful manor worked in my favor this time. I was behind one of the exhibit tables when I discovered (by stumbling on them) someone had stashed a couple wilting potted orchids out of sight. I am always careful to not damage others property (especially when I am slightly outside the expected public range), and while trying to catch my balance without toppling head first into the back of the display I glanced up to see how close I was. That's when I saw it.... a cat face! 

When standing, the gaps between petals were barely noticeable with exhibit features behind them. However from a lower angle (of trying to avoid an assplant) the gaps were backed by the glass roof. They looked like cat eyes, and the central features of the orchid became facial features. I wobbled into a squat (trying to make it seem like I was intentionally that close to the floor... as if no one saw what really happened, yeah right)
