It was late April when I came by. As I looked up into that tree top the sunlight was shining through, and at first I thought I must be dreaming.

The rich downward-curving "petals" were only the inner scales of the great buds, grown long and wide, their vivid orange setting off the compact yellow buds that still stood erect... I had never seen a hickory tree opening its iris-like buds before, but I have never missed it since. [From Chapter 1]
