Take everything you can from January, because after today, it’s kaput. We have reached the end of the warranty period and so tomorrow it stops working. And that heralds the end of the month abstract.
Again, not a lot that I’ve photographed this month, so this is from just yesterday to fulfill this very obligation. The flowers of the oak-leaf hydrangea (Hydrangea quercifolia) hang around forever, and so spend more time looking like this than like this. The-kid-that-asks-too-many-questions in me wonders what purpose this serves, other than being scaffolding for tiny spiders, though it might simply be an artifact of too much fiber in the diet or something. But they served my purpose for the day at least, so there’s that.
