Our local species of fir is Alpine Fir (Picea lasiocarpa). It is easily recognized among other evergreens by its taut, narrow habit; very vertical, branches very perpendicular, and looking quite stiff overall. It is a cool, pale, bluey green overall, due to narrow white lines on the...

I have never created a blog before. I wonder if anyone will read it.
Most everyone here at oak and mistletoe is located in Australia. I wonder if the indigenous people there are an integral part of society there or if they are fringe-dwellers, like Native Americans are here in the US. I...

The other day I went to visit The Scowl, a tree fungus that appears to be making a horrendous face. I hadn't visited it since last year. It's still on its stump, in a bog, a decent walk from home. It was my first long walk of Autumn, to a destination I associate with the...

I'm setting up this blog now for the sake of practice on this new site, but I already am keeping pencil-and-notebook hardcopy dream, nature, and meditation journals, which is what I'm comfortable with, and have been doing for years. In the past I've been rubbish at updating blogs, as they...

Right, this is so not good. I started Lesson 1 in August and was halfway through it and getting on well until today. I'd set up a folder on the lappy with my nature diary and stacks of entries, plus copious amounts of notes re the lesson from all the external reading I'd been doing, and everything...
