#BikeLaneSweeper has a hard time on these #BigLeafMaple piles, something where we've experimented with a leafblower on the previous iteration, and maybe the hybrid model handles this a little better by catching the lifted ones in the bins

"Bigleaf Maple"
Teableau for 11/12/25

We walked the dogs on a trail last evening that was thickly carpeted in Bigleaf Maple leaves, some larger than Thanksgiving platters.

Sometimes life gives you maple tree #squirrels. Those are good days.

Love watching the little dude fight to rip off each little leaf. Taking their nesting *very* seriously.

It's trash day, so we watched a trash panda visit the bins across the street, then climb one of the large #AcerMacrophyllum, #BigLeafMaple trees.

Walking in the temperate rainforest of the pacific northwest.... The young green hues of the #bigleafmaple captivated me. The vanilla leaf were in flower. And yellow violets and fringe cups. But I kept tipping my head upward to admire the trees. Malahat, Pauquachin, Tsartlip, Tsawout and Tseycum Territory.
This particular individual also produces 3-winged #samara, as well as the customary 2-winged kind. I know I've seen a website that attributed this to a #mutation, but searching the internet is what it is these days. #BigLeafMaple #PNW #NativePlants #GiantMutantPlantFTW
Big Leaf #Maple is already living up to its name. #BigLeafMaple #PNW #NativePlants
