Flowers...Can you tell it's spring?


There is this patch of these blue flowers exactly at the foot of a aged cherry tree. Just under the tree, no where else


I have a fondness for flowers that are little more than differentiated leaves...

Tree Sweaters



Part of a campus art festival, Art Club did some collaborative public art projects including the crocheting of bits of a tree sweater

Senior Row




The Senior Row cherry trees are the last to bloom every year but they coincide with the overnight appearance of the greenery on the Senior row oaks

Cherry Blossoms...some more


Every year, I'm a day too late to catch Baldwin's cherry blossoms so I made the extra effort this year...it'll be my last year to see it

White Floppy Flower Time!



I have no idea what these are called but I love them!

Even though these flowers are so delicate, they might be my favorite of the flowering spring trees

I love the way that Gingko turns green with its tiny little sprouts that are rounded along the dark, thick branches

Cherry Blossom time!

Our campus is full of cherry blossoms. But every year, the ones in front of Canaday bloom first in shocking pink while the rest of campus is only starting to be green.

Winter Berries


I love summer berries, they're my favorite fruit and I'll eat them as meals. Winter berries aren't quite edible but they always remind me of the bounty yet to come.

Happy Blizzard!

Here in PA, we got tons and tons of light fluffy powder!


first off, a scale photo. oh yeah, don't you want me to photograph your archaeological site with my crooked 30cm ruler?


My favorite bit about walking around in all parts of the blizzard was watching the snow pile up and freeze/fall off the curved trunks of the conifers



and a slightly grumpy looking robin
