Queen Anne’s Lace, also known as “wild carrot,” grows widely and wildly along the Charles River. It is so abundant that I sometimes ignore the sprawling plants, pushing it aside to get a glimpse of rarer, more colorful life. But sometimes the leaves and flowers of this plant catch the light in such a way that I cannot ignore their beauty.

Between meetings today, I was able to stroll through the Boston Public Gardens. As I rested in the shade of a willow tree by the pond, mallards waddled by on land while a majestic white swan glided by on the water. My hands were busy stuffing lemon ice down my throat (so hot here!). By the time my hands were free, all that was left in my vicinity were feathers.

Life and death connected as part of a cycle of existence. That is the thought that comes to mind as I review these pictures taken by the Charles River yesterday. It was sunlight glinting on the scales of the fish that initially caught my eyes. And, then, the longer I looked, the more I saw.

Yesterday was one of the first warm days here in the Boston area. I took a break from the computer for a brisk walk by the river. See more images from the day here.
