This is the final offering of all new spottings of the year. Here-on-in I'm going to cover edible wild food and tree identification. I'll add the flora and fauna from time to time as well. I'll link the edibles to the RUSTIC GRUB blog and cook something with them - from time to time.
Could be fun, or it'll kill me : /
