The Forest Floor

Keeping my walks in perspective, and my wits about me...




Some more views of the forest floor... AND a good reason to look up every once in a while!




I wasn't the only one having a wander this evening. As I walked down one slope, no more than 20 minutes from home, I encountered evidence that the berries were still on one forest denizen's menu!










We're not the only ones that check out the under growth. And we're certainly not the largest of God's creatures that walk in the woods! This bruin must have weighed in at over three-hundred pounds. Far bigger than twice my size, I was fortunate he had his mind set on blueberries! 

The moose too, should be respected. Getting between a cow and her calf can be as dangerous as coming between a she-bear and her cubs. I've yet to see a moose while hiking, only while driving so far this year. But there are plenty of walks to come.
