Gooseberry leaves are very small but, oh, what a vivid colour they turn in the fall. They are one of my favourite kinds of leaf. I used to tell myself that they were my imitation Maple leaves, but now I have seen a REAL Maple! Gooseberry berries are reddish purple. I felt very honoured when I was asked if I would be willing to let this image be used on Harvard University's website, ARKive. www.arkive.org/hawthorn-leaved-gooseberry/ribes-oxyacanth... "A vast treasury of wildlife images has been steadily accumulating over the past century, yet no one has known its full extent - or indeed its gaps - and no one has had a comprehensive way of gaining access to it. ARKive will put that right, and it will be an invaluable tool for all concerned with the well-being of the natural world." Sir David AttenboroughWildscreen Patron
