Today was a good day to just get out for a bit, go for a walk...clear my head, and look at the color coming back into the world. So...I took a walk along a creek at the bottom of Signal Mountain.
It was great to see the new beginnings of spring!
next autumn those will look like this.
All the recent rains have the creek flowing pretty well right now.
Bug on a bloom beside a babbling brook
At one time I would have seen this as a possible resource, and most likely I would have taken it home and added it to the collection. However in recent years there has been some much in the news about contaminated containers involved in meth production I would advise against opening anything like this around here unless you had no other choice.
I think maybe this was done by Pileated Woodpeckers, there were a couple in the immediate area...their call is unmistakable.
Whatever these are, there are a lot of them popping up.
There were some nice pools to it beside and chill.
This rock looked like a comfortable seat (and it was) so that's where I stopped and had a snack.
Nice view too.
I ate my tuna with a somewhat expensive, micarta handled spoon because I have somehow misplaced my spork.
Ever find yourself wondering about the food regulations in other countries...?
Here's a question for you...which would likely be safer to drink as is, the rain water collected in a pool on the rock?
Or, the water the rock is in?
