Mushrooms dot the shade beneath the brush, stark white bubbles in a sea of green and black. Beyond the mushrooms, rows of gnarled reeds stand at attention, defending nothing more important than the gradual slope up the hills to the east. Above, indifferent to the posturing of the little weeds and fungus, an alder tree perches, home to a family of sparrows that dart through the air with liquid ease.
