Fern frond in the forest. DP131-2013 Posted late May 11; taken and processed ditto Kensington Metropark Nature Center trail. Milford Township, MI May 11, 2013 Another extremely late post. I have got to break myself of this habit, but it's too tempting to spend these days out and about. I'll catch up on commenting tomorrow, I hope. For those who are curious, I just applied the spherize distortion in photoshop to create this effect...sort of like looking through a magnifying glass. Sorry I don't know what kind of fern it is. It's a young frond, not fully developed, though.

D110-2012 ferns type C (one of four types) Heathdale area Something about the way the fronds of this fern unfurl, curving backward as it were, suggest a creature that is stretching upon being awakened from a long winter's sleep. The body language of ferns. Another tiny fly makes its appearance in this shot. Nichols Arboretum, Ann Arbor, Michigan April 20, 2012 (nex5n)
D110-2012 ferns type A (one of four types) Heathdale area Each emerging frond in this particular patch had two pairs of darkened leaflets. Another patch of this same type of fern lacked this feature though it was situated not more than a few hundred feet away in a similar location in terms of exposure to light, wind, and water. Closer examination of the dark 'leaflets' shows them to be comprised of tiny spherical blobs, not the usual flatter flesh of leaves. Are these reproductive features?
