print printemps des temps...



The way to work. Muddy these days; March is here.





















I thought it was weird that all these trees started their springtime growth in little balls, right in the middle of the branches.
Then I found one that had died. You can see where the parasite plant has inflamed the bark of the host tree. What is it? Doesn't look like mistletoe, does it?
Springtime. Pussywillows.
No jokes, now.
