Reflection


 
 
 
The process whereby some plants release excess moisture at the edges of their leaves is called guttation. You'll ususally see it very early on humid mornings when there is also an abundance of water in the soil. (This is not the same thing as dew.) It makes for some great photos. (Don't have an author on that last one - sorry - I lifted it from someone who lifted it from someone without attributing it.)
