Nature Imp female, Brown/Avocado/Lavender, Petals/Freckle/Gembond.
Imp female because of the circular pose- it seemed appropriate for a tree of life, and the fullness of the wings gives plenty of "leaves". Petals gives us the layered bark, Freckle the leaves, and Gembond the flowers. Nature eyes because why not? It's a plant after all!

I think Saturday's organism has seen the most variation and creativity in dragon scys!
@LoveWolves815
Thank you so much for running this competition. It was really fun, and extremely appropriate for the Endangered Species theme of this Greenskeeper Gathering. I think I speak for all entrants when I say it was one of the things I looked forward to doing every day this week. :)

So sorry guys for this being very late! I know I wanted all the winners for everyday to be announced the following day and of course that didn't work out unfortunately. This was the first event I ran and I didn't have much experience with it but I've learned and if I ever run another event I'll know better.
All of you did a great job, there were so many good ones! You guys are very creative! Thank you all so much for participating, it was a lot of fun looking through all your scrys everyday!
THURSDAY ~ Insect ~ Lord Howe Island Stick Insect

Lord Howe Island Stick Insect (Dryococelus australis). Scry specifically based on this specimen:

[i]The Lord Howe Island stick insect or tree lobster, is a species of stick insect which lives on the Lord Howe Island Group. It was thought to be extinct by 1930, only to be rediscovered in 2001 (this phenomenon is known as the Lazarus effect). It is extinct in its largest habitat, Lord Howe Island, and has been called "the rarest insect in the world", as the rediscovered population consisted of fewer than 30 individuals living on the small islet of Ball's Pyramid. It is unknown how the insects got to the lonely spire of rock. They may have rafted, been carried by birds, or left as unused bait by fishermen.[/i]
[center][img]http://images.joelsartore.com/preview/I/INS005-00036.jpg[/img][/center]
Adult Lord Howe Island stick insects can measure up to 15 centimetres (5.9 in) in length and weigh 25 grams (0.88 oz) with females bigger than males. They are oblong in shape and have sturdy legs. Males have thicker thighs than females. Unlike most phasmids they have no wings, but are able to run quickly.
