snow falling on fig leaves

It's fun watching the snow falling on our fig tree. The fig leaves are so wide that they can catch quite a lot of snow, but they're supple enough that they quickly bend and drop their payload, often onto the next leave down, which then collapses itself, and so on. And then they all spring back and start catching the snow again. It reminds me a little of a pachinko machine.
