Palettes of color, form, and texture behind a scrim of tree trunks


Beds of moss with a hairy covering of sporophytes

Gill o' the Ground under the protection of fall leaves

LeRoy followed me like a dog.

And clawed his way up my leg like a cat.

Blooms of blue-green lichen on rotting branches

Perfect dinner-plates eaten out of oak leaves

Remember this goldenrod from a post last summer?

It is just as beautiful now

Along with the milkweed seeds

All glowing in the slant of late afternoon winter light, warming towards spring

Beautiful pictures Meg! I expected to see snow for some reason!
Thanks! No, no snow right now. But you never know what's going to happen in January in Ohio. Could be shorts weather, or sledding. Ah, global warming!
