It is so satisfying to study tree regeneration & thus potential forest futures. I started with #WhitePine regeneration research in Minnesota long ago & my grad students now work on #PitchPine, #RedSpruce, #SugarMaple, & forest understory ecology in eastern US & elsewhere.

There are lots of #birds out there, but mostly the usual suspects, like the #titmouse. The #redbud tree is budding (attended by a #bee), the #maple is blooming (not sure if it is a #sugarmaple or a male #boxelder tree) and that ubiquitous spring flower that appears in empty lots, #butterweed , is blooming. #photos #nature #birds #wildflowers #bloomingtrees

Tomorrow marks ten months since the #SugarMaple podcast inspired me to stop wishing I was a guitar player and start making it a reality. Nine months since my wife said "you're the most left-handed person I know, why are you still trying to play righty?"
Sugar maple botanical illustration went a bit heavy on the color some of the detail is hidden...

The #GothicRevival #Cudworth House of #Assonet — before partially burning down — during #Halloween times. About as #Spooky a house as you can get in New England and yes it is in the #BridgewaterTriangle and yes it is purportedly #Haunted .

The #SugarMaple #Acer_saccharum specimens out front are truly exemplary and perhaps siblings of my now-departed #StreetTree

Looks like the big #SugarMaple #Acer_saccharum in front of my house is scheduled for removal shortly. Sadly, this species is quite intolerant of road salt and our tendency to have droughts in summer have likely not helped things. It’s had a good run and has apparently already been a fairly large tree in 1915!

Made it to colour #3 in the gradient! That’s the collar at the top, and I’m increasing as it extends down over the shoulders. #knitting #SugarMaple
