I ventured out this afternoon into a brisk north wind, wearing my heavy winter jacket. Where had spring gone? The high wind made it considerably more difficult to photograph new growth on the shrubs and trees along Piney Woods Church Road, including this tulip poplar seedling. When the sun emerged from behind a cloud, though, the late-day lighting was marvelous. I fear for all these tender leaves, though, with temperatures expected to reach the mid-20s overnight.
