There is a wall to the north, as Rolandvue goes over a small hill on the way west toward Bellona. Behind the wall are some clumps of Ostrich Fern. They grow in crown-like circles with the name due to a resemblance to ostrich feathers. The ID is based on the clumping and the semi-tapered twice cut leave.
Our guide noted the central fiddlehead was small, that it would be, at least for some, edible with cooking, but not to assume that all fiddleheads are edible.
The ostrich fern is native to the east coast of North America, as well as other temperate areas.
