Mini-survey

Overall update: the maple still has green and yet has dropped many leaves.

Found these rowan berries when I was out for a stroll, assessing the outdoor chore situation for before we leave (currently looking at next Wednesday, although the weather prognosticators often change their tune).

Speaking of chores, I pruned back this woody honeysuckle earlier. Now that most of the leaves (they’re small) have fallen, I can see that the branches are populated by many interesting flora. [How many species here? My guess is at least five….]

    If you return with 4 pounds I will make this jelly: https://www.thespruceeats.com/easy-rowan-berry-jelly-recipe-435773

    We could also make a dye with the flora, but I”m not that ambitious….
