There is a relatively large roundabout on top of a hill where 3 streets meet in Ravenna Neighborhood. Inside, it hides a miniature park, with benches, a Little Free Library, and mostly native plant landscaping. A little free photo bombing by Monty.

I found only three hazelnuts (Corylus cornuta) in the bushes...and there are lots of bushes in the understory here! #Photography #SeattleWashington #SeattleSummer #SeattleParks #RavennaPark #NativePlants #FruitScrolling #NativePlantsOfThePNW

Misted the love-in-a-mist. Watering the children's garden early in the morning. I love those seed pods!
