Starting a new project: a cabinet with sliding doors in (more or less) mid-century style. Spent several hours with a bunch of cherry deciding what would be used where.

The forest is at peak fern this time of year. There are hay-scented ferns as far as you can see (which, admittedly, isn’t very far in the forest).
This is a native species double feature from today’s hike: a tulip poplar flower that landed in hay-scented ferns along the trail. The late morning light was just perfect.
A new red maple poking out, one of so many I saw on my hike. I’m going to keep tabs on this particular one to see how it fares. Another native species.
