Koohii stories:

1) [fuaburisu] 23-8-2007(213): A vegetarian vulture is munching on a flower, perched on a tree, patiently waiting for a patch of vegetables to grow.

2) [dshill99] 5-6-2008(98): grab (#2090 采) beneath the flowers to get the vegetables. 野菜 やさい.

3) [Doodsaq] 18-12-2007(86): Wolverine is turning into total hippie. He said he only eats vegetables now and last time I saw him sitting in a tree with flowers in his hair.

4) [tuuli] 30-1-2008(21): Nobody likes to eat their vegetables, not even vultures who will eat anything. So they hide in a flower-covered tree, until the scary vegetables disappear. Picture the ugly vulture head peeking out from behind the flowers.

5) [delbertmon] 26-11-2009(15): Tip: vulture + tree : Heisig later combines these into a single kanji 采 called grab (2090). — Story: Many vegetables are roots and so you take their flowers and grab them in order to harvest the vegetable. — REF: "grab" also appears in pick (733), coloring (#1714 彩).
