I love ferns. They’re a bit spooky aren’t they? I think it’s the organised symmetery and curled-finger-like new growth.
It’s mind blowing too how they’ve been around looking exactly the same for millions of years. I’ll brush past them walking through the forest and wonder whether a dinosaur perhaps looked at them and thought they were spooky too (or possibly just thought – yum, dinner)…
