I acquired a taste for thimbleberries this past summer. It grows wild around here and it’s very tasty if you catch it just right. The flavor is similar to a raspberry, though not as sweet and juicy. It grows caplike on its pulpy base and the form isn’t suitable for more than a tiny taste treat if you find it along the trail.
I’ve heard of thimbleberries before but I don’t think they grow down here. The do look a lot like raspberries. Excellent photo – depth of field is perfect.
Wishing you a wonderful week!
Oh, it was 57 degrees here this morning! Yeah!
I’ve never heard of a thimbleberry before. They look lovely!
i never heard of that berry, i think!
in sweden we picked the last blueberries and lingonberries of the season, so nice!!
Tiny taste is right, I’ve never seen more than a few berries at any one spot.
Wonderful contrast! What a lovely shot, Kay.
