We called these "Helicopter Seeds" when I was a child. A few years ago we moved to Wisconsin where these trees are EVERYWHERE! So, last fall, this 50+ year old giggled as she threw them into the air and watched them spin all the way to the ground. PS The bright orange leaves are breathtaking every fall, too!

Winged maple seeds~ahhh, they bring back some lovely memories of growing up in the Northeast :)
I don't think I have ever seen a winged maple seed! How neat. Cool, original design. :)
Very cool image..it would make a great stencil.
There's NOTHING MORE BEAUTIFUL than Nature itself!!!!!!! :)
As a botanist, I approve of this post. :)
