Fern

Am not in the mood to traipse around out in the cold outdoors with the camera, so here’s a photo I took last summer.   

I wish I could say this fern was growing in the yard here on our farm, but actually it was along the trail at Effigy Mounds National Monument near Marquette, Iowa.  As I get ready to click “publish”, the thought crosses my mind that the green of this fern will clash with the green background of this blog, but that’s the way it goes.
