Backyard and Beyond

Starting out from Brooklyn, an amateur naturalist explores our world.

As John Burroughs said, “The place to observe nature is where you are.”

Pawpaw/Asimina triloba flowers hang downwards, making them a challenge to photograph.

I did manage to catch a fly or two heading in, though. The color and smell of these flowers are supposed to attract carrion flies.

Whatever it takes for pollination…
