Fir Cone

 
We're more used to seeing coniferous cones in their final dry brown form littering the winter stands-if we register them at all, it's easy to forget how they began verdant, supple, delicate in form and colour; natures' designs are so cool. There are few different cones found in the New Forest, this one belongs to a Douglas Fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii).
