Fiddleheads

A spring taste treat with a short season as the ferns unfurl in the forest.
Wash them well, cook them well and feast. (Simple recipe can be found here)


Feb 20/10: Scroll   Fiddlehead

The scroll of the fiddlehead certainly resembles that of a stringed instrument.

Day 118: The fiddleheads open


Day 118: The fiddleheads open, originally uploaded by susanvg.

Spring is the ephemeral season. Nothing lasts; change is constant. Each day the sights from yesterday have morphed into new delights. These ferns, just tiny fiddleheads yesterday, started to unfurl; tomorrow they may point their fronds skyward. The trees are dappled with delicate green lace like pointillist paintings. It is definitely my favourite season.
