We'll be dodging rain showers today.
This is perfect weather for the new Licorice ferns to grow.
Aren't they pretty delicate little things?
There's still a bit of color...
...though most trees, like this oak have lost their leaves...
...and are now festooned with mosses.
We've had enough rain that the Big Creek has begun to flow again.
Nootka Rose leaves.
The bright red of Osier Dogwood stems.
Cottonwood.
Raindrops on Douglas fir...
...more of the same.
Droplets on Pine.
Lots of moisture = mushrooms!
What interesting things you shared from your walk, Beth! Those licorice ferns are so pretty. We have been sprouting mushrooms a good bit of the year in 2018.
ReplyDeleteThat big cloud!!! And those lovely ferns!! Love those mosses.

ReplyDeleteYou do a great job of capturing our beautiful woods, even in the winter.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Leaving for the Oregon Coast this Saturday. Plan to stop in Corvallis on the way home to shop Starlight Stitchery (formerly Friendship Crossing). Do you know if Ann’s family is running the shop? Or did they sell?
