April

Two sketches from last April – this is about the stage we are at right now – still running 2-3 weeks early.  However, the weather has cooled off quite a bit and a lot of the plants have slowed down or stopped in their tracks. 


The buds of the understory beech trees are swelling but not yet popped and the winter wrens are singing. 


Wild ginger (Asarum canadense) is in flower and the foamflower (Tiarella cordifolia) is almost flowering.
