How about an Urban Nature post?

It's been a long time, but you've all been so kind and helpful! Here is a set of photos from our dogwalk this past Sunday, in Olmsted Park in Boston and Brookline.



I think I'll be collecting Signs of Spring until the third week of June. This week: Skunk Cabbage. These are the flowers, which appear before the foliage.



A little bit of wood ear.



A lot of wood ear.



Spring Pond, one of the least urban-looking urban places in Boston.



The Artist getting skunk cabbage flower pictures.





This rock was used as a perch for some rodent to eat acorns on.



Blocks of apartment buildings on the Brookline side of the park.

Spring Pond is very cute - reminds me of my little pond.

That's what Alexis was trying to say about your post the other day! (She calls it Duck Pond).
