Weird or What? Veined, Round Ball. Found laying on ground,in the open. No Known species of plant or tree produce such a thing in the area. Maybe not living at all, but i didn't want to squish it. ******hahahha ok its an avocado pit! from the compost.

Yes i have found many interesting seedlings in the compost.
the common are tomatoes seedlings, but i've been getting quite the diversity out of the compost the year, such as peach seedlings (peach-lings), and Mangos.
I have a new one i found in the compost also and potted up for identification purposes, i will upload next.
I doubt the avocado would survive a winter up here, but I wonder how many other species are inadvertently planted in the course of composting?
neat veins in it. Made me think it was something more
hahah.. Ok so upon further inspection, it is an avocado pit, thank you TK
Looks a bit like an avocado pit to me...
