More Red Berries

 
The afternoon light was nice and intense when I took a walk this afternoon. The sun was most welcome!

You've seen all these plants before, but these are new pictures, taken today. First we have Japanese Barberry. Still planted as an ornamental but it can become invasive.

Rose hips were glowing brightly.

And although this isn't nearly the prettiest highbush cranberry near me, it was on the walk I took today, so it wins.

In other news: the house is as clean as it's going to get, but it's lots better than a week ago. I pick Steve up at the airport in the morning. Wrote a chapter. Went shopping (I HATE shopping), but have some fun (I hope) joke gifts under the Christmas tree that didn't cost TOO much.

This time of year when everything looks mostly brown, a splash of red berries is a welcome sign.
