The woodland behind my home can't be more than 40 acres, and yet every journey into it brings a new discovery, if I slow down and pay attention.
It belongs to some mining company, which has had the sense to leave it alone so far.
Internet buddies helped me identify this sapling as a redbud, Cercis canadensis.
It's a sibling to the green peas on your dinner plate, and to the tamarind from which tropical folk make such a fine drink.
