Another beautiful day, perfect for a walk. I really prefer visiting forests that are located right next to bogs or swampy areas during winter time. Places where I was mobbed by swarms of mosquitoes or was rushed through by deer flies in the warmer months, I can now enjoy at a leisurely pace. So off hubby and I went to take in some fresh air.
The red seeds of the Staghorn Sumac add a beautiful contrast to the muted browns all around.
Little pathways make it easy to navigate through the brush.
The afternoon sunshine painted beautiful colors onto the trees.
I really like that this particular forest is in its essence being left on its own devices. Trees lay were they fall and only the little pathways are being maintained.
