In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks. ~John Muir
It is always good to slow down and take a walk once in a while. It refreshes body and soul and one never knows what one might discover.
A nest in the apple tree:
A crab spider hiding out in the phlox (she is so clever with her camouflage):
And a pine beetle:
Oh yes, he is alive!
I think the dent in the beetle’s wing casing was caused by an adventurous kitten.
She only looks innocent!
What discoveries have you made on your walks?
