Nice..
I wish I knew more about clouds..........would have helped me there.
yay i got it! nice teaser..
I knew that was the answer but for a wrong reason. If you look at the end of each word they end with -us but the other words end with constanent -us.
this was easy because i actually knew they were clouds lol...the other puzzles are a different story!
Fun but easy, I knew most of them were clouds... good one!
Multiple logics work here.
Deciduous is an adjective while the other words are nouns.
Also, as ThePoppingBrain noted, deciduous has a vowel before the -us, whereas the others have a consonant before the -us.
