Green December

            We have had very little snow so far this December. Because of that, I have been able to photograph some plants that tend to stay green all winter but are usually hidden under the snow. Following are 9 that I have found between December 23 and 29:

Unidentified Moss growing up the sides of a small tree.

I wish I knew sedges. I think this is a sedge.

Sorry, not really even sure about that.
