Every year, the cottonwood trees around my house are pretty overwhelming.
But this year it's insane. Just insane. The little fluffies are inches deep everywhere.
Now I have an explanation.
Oh there you are! #whitetaildeer in the #cottonwood Grove. The day I took this, the deer on the hillside directly ahead was grumpy and aggressive, and was trying to stomp our #LunaTCat. After Luna was put on her lead, she

I was interviewed for a #science #news story, "What the #Fluff? It’s a ‘Holy Cow’ Year for #Cottonwood, and Here’s Why", story by Patty Wetli, WTTW Chicago.

The cottonwood trees start blowing their seeds a couple of days ago but it’s really coming down today. Video wouldn’t do it justice. The seeds look like light sparse snowflakes riding on air. Drifts are forming and there will be tiny seedlings everywhere by fall.
This is probably the type of cottonwood we have locally:

Without a size reference It's often hard to visualize how big some of Cottonwood trees really are. These two Canada Geese are trying to land on a growth halfway up a tree - although it was too small to provide footing for more than one of them.

Sky stuff.
This is from today’s bosque walk. Good times.

It is cold and the snow is deep in Minnesota this week.
To the right of the #cottonwood that thinks it’s an oak tree is a long #prairie planting on the lakes edge. I intended to some spring overseeding on this visit. Nope. Not going to happen.
Something closer to home from many, many moons ago...

It's been a while since I've been here... it's saddening to view the effects of overuse.

An opportunity arose for #watershed #restoration:
“But now, because Chinook, steelhead and trout are listed under the Endangered Species Act, the Bonneville Power Administration is trying to rebuild #floodplains using revenue from electricity generation.
With help from the #nonprofit Trout Unlimited, Wilson won a $1.2 million BPA grant to restore his three-quarter mile stretch of river.
In the summer of 2022, crews placed 475 trees, many complete with massive root wads, in the channel to slow water down and spread it out. They built 54 artificial #beaver dams to hold water in the floodplain and create lots of little stillwater pools. And they planted #cottonwood, #willow and #alder trees for shade.”

Winter morning in the cottonwood trees. An intense hoare frost is caught in the low morning sunlight. A little river on the High Plains of Montana.

@urbandata it's absolutely infuriating to me to watch developers in Denver cut down all of the native cottonwood trees, build a building and them plant red maples KNOWING that 50% minimum will dies in a few years. Over and over these idiots do exactly the same thing planting non-native trees that can't deal with the temperature fluctuations because they are cheap and the developers don't care that they'll die.

TBT: It was January 2013 when Matthew and I came across a beautiful golden cottonwood just as the sun was emerging from the clouds.
I'll never forget that morning with him and that tree.

#OTD #JohnFremont discovered the #Cottonwood #Tree (Populus fremontii) near Pyramid Lake in Nevada.
Cottonwoods are the fastest-growing #Trees in North America w/ weak wood & a #Star-shaped #Pith. Female trees make the fluffy star-shaped #Seeds that collect in your #Garden & #Garage in June.
#NativeAmerican #Folklore tells that the trees held the #Stars of the sky in their #Branches for many moons. But one #Windy #Spring, they released them all until they filled the night sky.
