“Hickory” — C.Birde, 10/15

Arrow-tall Hickory pelts the earth with its potential offspring. In childhood, I spent many a day beneath just such a tree as  squirrel or chipmunk or blue jay; peeling back thick, green, four-petaled husks till my fingernails were tarnished; cracking open the small taupe-brown orbs within; picking out and eating the sweet nutflesh.

    • Thank you so much. This season is very cooperative when it comes to taking pictures, and trees are such patient models! 🙂
