out with the old, and in with the new

Managed a quick mooch around the park between jobs this morning. Had decided i wanted to photograph birds today, however for some unknown reason the only thing flying about was some luck blighters going on their jolly holidays in an aeroplane. So started shooting trees and berries and the such like, didn't realise there were new shoots on the trees until i down loaded them this evening.The juxtaposition of the new shoots goes rather well with the old curled up discarded leaf.
