Almost done. Good job.
Trunk of an aspen (Populus tremula) on the edge of our meadow that has almost closed two large wounds with massive callus.

Deciduous tree! #deciduoustree

Can you see the tree buds swelling?

I've been watching the buds since winter solstice. Then, only the most watchful eye could see them slowly, slowly, slowly changing.

Now the buds are swelling faster, faster, faster until they finally unfurl their blossoms and leaves.

That moment is nearly upon us here!

What are the tree buds doing in your climate?
