California black walnut, Santa Monica Mountains (12/23/20) Peter Asco
I received more than my share of gift nuts this holiday season,
including this snap of a California black walnut at peak in the Santa
Monica Mountains sent by Peter Asco. He writes, "Despite wind, low
temperatures and winter's arrival,"... this full color tree is "a
lesson on hope, faith, and the resilience of nature."
