As the heat and humidity rise we have begun enjoying lovely early evening hiking. We were delighted to see a flock of juvenile Robins that still had speckling on their chests and a lovely Whitetail Deer stepping out onto thepath ahead of us. A colorful Indigo Bunting and Summer Tanager sang beautiful songs above us in the Trees. Fungi and Wildflowers painted the Forest floor attracting mollusks (snail) and Insects (False Bee).
There is no better Soul therapy than escaping in to the Mountains and communing with the Trees and beings who call the park home.
Special thanks to my husband Rick for spot the lovely Whitetail Doe quickly enough so I could get these photographs without startling her.
Love to ALL!
