The woods are brimming with young ferns! I can find both the baby "fiddleheads" and the "awkward teenagers". The latter is when the frond is almost finished with its unfurling but the leaflets are still not fully open. The overall effect is a straggly individual whose characteristics don't reflect what its mature beauty will soon be.
