I want to show how beautiful & important that community parks & greenspaces are essential to our living ecosystems. Nature doesn't need us - WE NEED NATURE!
More photos from our hike through Calvert Park today. I'm really sad that the huge beaver lodge that was there for years - was removed by humans! The beaver family that lived there for years is now displaced & I don't know if they survived. Displaced when road work started & their lodge was removed during that time 😪
Uploading my video from Calvert Park hike now. Shot from a fantastic viewpoint - atop moss & lichen covered huge boulders. We climbed atop them boulders & rested for snacks/water break. Took photos & one vid.
Today. I hiked Calvert park in early afternoon with my friend, Marie. Got lost, ended up in someone's backyard & walked down their driveway back to road. The old trail back to road has been blocked off.
Please enjoy & excuse my not smiling face.
I wanted to show folks that nature never wastes anything. I wanted to show how this dead tree is feeding new life growths & how many animals benefit from us letting nature do its thing.
I saw this huge Douglas fir tree trunk on our way back to parking spot.
When I first saw it - shouted out - LOOK AT THAT! They are WOOD SHORTS!
Then, my friend took a pic of me with the big wood shorts.
