Avocado leaf, heart-shaped caterpillar munch, the most recent addition to the Heart Shapes in Nature series.
A show of red pops against the weathered dead branches and late summer foliage in the canyons of northern Arizona. I didn’t notice that it was heart-shaped until sorting out photos this week.
During winter the Avocado leaves become very crisp, and when crumbled in the hands the scent is kind of like licorice.
