Question
Hi I am looking to find out what kind of ferns these may be. It's located in/near wetlands. Reading, MA woodland area.
Answer
Dear maddymacdonald5, the picture is a little close for me to see the form of the fern, but it appears to be a member of the Osmundaceae (royal fern family). It could be either Osmundastrum cinnamomeum (cinnamon fern) or Osmunda claytoniana (interrupted fern), but I would need additional images to help you further. Best wishes.
