CW’d to avoid visual spoilers for those who have yet to open and swatch their own calendars.

I’ve rarely seen Noble Fir cones lying on the ground, so was really pleased to come across this one lying not far from the Noble Fir tree. I really like the structure of these with the seeds and the rougher bracts. It was only when I was looking at this in more detail that I realised that it is the female tree which produces cones.

Now that’s what you call a #FirCone!
This is from the #NobleFir which grows in the woodland at #WWTCastleEspie.
Apparently the #squirrels love them.
