The fallen
Saturday, 14 November 2015
I have heard that all the ginkgo trees let go their leaves on the same day. This tree has released only some of its leaves. Somehow, the yellow isn’t quite what I remember.
Around here, we’ve been spending a lot of time with Frahnce van-cat (not its real name). Horrible situation.
On other matters (distractions?), I have been reading about the Lilliput Effect…the theory that after catastrophic extinctions, in general, the size of vertebrates declines. For millions of years. (If you’re so inclined, read more here (paywall).)
