One of my more obscure obsessions is collecting interesting balls. I prefer spheres that are made naturally (rocks, seeds, animal or hand made, etc…) I would love to have a dung ball from a beetle. Second to those, are ones that have an obscure or unidentifiable purpose.  Next would be ones altered significantly from their original mass-production and lastly ones that are awesome.  No, I do not like xmas tree ornament balls but I do enjoy some of the more obscure ornamental balls you can buy around town. Someday I would like to display my collection when it is too large to maintain at home.

Here is a picture of a ball made by the dung beetle. If you have any of these laying around, you are my hero.
