Another tour of The Place

Swale field

Different grass grows in the well-watered swale, compared to the rest of the field.

Stump shelf fungus

Even smaller beings than these shelf fungi and the green, green moss are in the process of breaking down this stump. Dead-wood is becoming high-nutrient organic matter* in the soil.

Lake quiet

Today’s lake view photo. Light off-shore breeze means quiet waters.

* “Organic matter” was a favorite phrase of the Botanist.
