Today I walked down to Chestnut Hill Reservation in hopes that I might see some birds or animals of some sort, however it seemed like a fairly quite evening, and I was unable to spot any that I could photograph. However, I saw more variety of plants than I had expected. Initially it seemed like there were only a few different types of trees like oaks, honeysuckles, and pines, but as I continued walking around I began to take more notice of the shrubs around the base of the trees. While they didn't stand out at first, as I looked closer there were many different types, a few of which I chose to photograph. It was interesting how even though there were many large trees, much of the greenery on the ground was from the shrubs at the base of the trees. I wrapped up my walk right as the sun was setting, and it was a nice end of the day.
There were 2 or 3 oak trees in the spot where this picture was taken. The branches formed almost a canopy over the path.
This is a close up of the leaves of the previous oak tree.
A close up of the needles on a pine tree in the reservation.
Leaves from another oak tree growing over some rocks.
Seen growing by the edge of the trees.
This was in an area that seemed kind of cultivated, but this plant may or may not have been planted where it was. Nevertheless I thought it was interesting.
This was a small shrub growing near the edge of the trees.
Found in the half cultivated and half wild area on the other side of the street of the reservation.
