Fig


Here grows grass and herbage in variety. Tender exotics favour more sheltered crannies - here on the top, trees adopt a braced posture against the winds that holler in from up the valley.

Today the top of a (low) Welsh mountain yielded a fig. Soft and ripe, ready to be photographed as lasting proof of its existence - or even eaten perhaps. Now what did it taste like? I can't be certain. This was the last I saw of it:
















That dog will eat almost anything.

I know that look! Cheeky dog...hope you get another fig to try - but you'll probably have a fight on (once a fig is tasted a dog just can't get enough of them; probably find him jumping up to get them off the tree/bush!)
