hazelnuts

After my Covid isolation ended, Brendan took me for a short walk in the neighbourhood. The sun was shining and it felt good to get out. I have to admit that I was suffering from cabin fever (and for those of you who use Google Translate to read my blog, no, it's not a fever, just an expression).
And we can across lots of these amazing hazelnuts pods, I'm not sure what they're called, on the ground, and I picked them up to sketch them. It was fascinating to watch the various stages, from shiny and mostly closed over to dry with the nuts falling. I picked a few, and now they're all at the dry stage, all the vibrant green is gone. I must sketch them again!
