Edibles

For the last week I have been enjoying a few wild edibles here and there, after learning how to identify some of the plants.

I have supplemented my store diet with ostrich ferns, cattails, dandelion greens and wild oat stems. The cattails tasted a bit like okra. Looking forward to trying some other the bounty around us as the spring and summer progress.

Other new things: the beaver has made two new dams...we may end up with a second pond, but it does not threaten any roadways. Seems to add to the beauty of the nature around us.
