Puzzle of the Day

Monday, March 23

Wolf, snow, worm, pink, flower, strawberry, buck, sturgeon, harvest, hunter, beaver, cold: these are the names of what? Any of these might be super, and once in a while there's a blue one, too.

Hint (highlight to view): Why are there 12 (but sometimes an extra)?

   


Check back tomorrow for the answer, a shoutout to all the solvers, and a new puzzle!


Yesterday's puzzle:

The four things represented below—one as an audio file and three as images—have WHAT THEME in common? For bonus points, name all four.

   (If you don't see an audio player, click here to open the audio file.)

     

Answer:

The music is "Chopsticks" and the other items are a (roseate) spoonbill, a fork in the road, and a Swiss army knife. The theme is utensils.

Hurrah for solvers Charlie*, Zachary Z., Carl, Maddy*, Hazel*, Jason, Zachary S.* (with help from his daughter Martina), and Dr. Yetman*! (The ones with the asterisk got the bonus points by knowing the names of all four items.)
