Field Notes

Description:

Hickories are common in east central Mississippi woodlands. I visit this mature shagbark hickory often and I've taken photos of it at many different times of year. I like the many different "greens" of early spring ... before all the new growth toughens up, gets darker, shows less variation in color.

Same tree at different times of year:
