When I went for my five mile hike in the woods this week, I was actually glad that it was so chilly for a few reasons. First, the chilly, damp, overcast morning made me move a little faster to create body heat and secondly, I saw NO ONE.
What I did discover were a few treasures throughout the woods that I have here at home like Trillium, Adders Tongue, fiddleheads, and lots and lots of wet, soggy earth.

No, I wasn't expecting to discover the similarities between the trail through the woods and our "space" however, I must say that when I saw the "Thank You" painted on the rock sitting perfectly on the moss covered stump, I was glad that I was part of this Earth and humanity.

I Love Nature and enjoy looking at all the pictures..
Have a Tiggeriffic Day ~!~! I'll be back to look at your blog more often now.. I missed you...
I know you monitor Bald Eagle and Osprey nests in your area, but do you get information about other nests within CT? I saw a brief news story about a Bald Eagle pair being photographed in a tree at Longshore Golf Course in Westport, CT, and it made me wonder if they had a nest in there somewhere, too. It's an ideal location, right on Long Island Sound, with plenty of fish to find and eat. :-) I'm thinking of making a "road trip" to that location, to see if I can find and photograph them, but I think the golf course is open, too, so I won't want to risk human interactions. :-(
