Silk tassel bush (Garrya elliptica) blooming in the park. Although it doesn't grow natively quite this far north, it thrives in our climate.

Yesterday I forgot why I didn't go to the parks this past week, and saw all the fallen branches and trees covering the trails. The saws were buzzing in the background. The main trail was clear, thanks Seattle Parks Dept.! I did get to see a nice display of lichens on mossy branches by the sides of the trail.

(very water logged Armillaria spp yesterday in the park)

It's pouring rain and the madrone (Arbutus menziesii) looks extra polished

Split gill mushrooms in the rain look like fuzzy sweaters in the wash
