The brook is beautiful, as always, in its winter coat.
There's evergreen vegetation to enjoy:
 |
| partridgeberry |
 |
| wintergreen |
 |
| polypody fern |
And remnants of last year's vegetation:
 |
| sensitive fern fertile fronds |
And hopes for spring:
 |
| hobblebush buds |
 |
| golden saxifrage still hanging on in the comparatively warm seeps |
 |
| vernal pool, sleeping for the season |
