Woods

I haven’t been doing a good job posting updates. It’s not because things haven’t been happening here; it’s because it’s all too easy to get caught up in the day to day. To end the year I’m posting some photos showing some of the textures and colors we see in the woods. All but the last photo are of tree bark, slowly rotting tree stumps, and moss. The last photo I took the day after Christmas when there was snow on the ground. It shows marks left by bird wings on the snow as birds hunt for seeds.

In the last post I showed the berry patch in full bloom. That was in late May. In early June berries have started to form.

The branches are heavy with raspberries. Here’s a closer shot.

The berries will be ripe in early July.
