Cue much coffee drinking... Reminded of drinking a powerful syrupy brew in #Laos some years ago... Light. Making the most of a Sunday morning. From yesterday's brief morning escape up to the #HakarimataSummit and then along the ridge line to look at details: Out and about this morning before settling at my laptop... this caught my eye: a wood ear fungus cupping a pukatea seed...
