Do I Know This Place ?

Walden Pond, Concord, Massachusetts

Just a Pond... and a tree.

  

Knock, knock, knock...

 With a nut.

  A step and a run.

   

Still here.

  

  Rising, 

 to the top, 

            and down.

Round and around, to the center.

  

  And around... 

Autumnal Living

Estabrook Woods, Concord, Massachusetts
 
Wondrous, glowing...
 
Without much rain for some time.
Tangled ponds,
   in the twilight of colors and motions.
 
 Serene...

Happy Spring !!!!

Great Brook Farm State Park, Carlisle, Massachusetts

      Just awaken from the winter sleep... 

Friendly

Great Brook Farm State Park, Massachusetts   

 Quite warm today, summery...
  I can hear birds up in the crowns and the insects flying around.
   The leaves go along...

  Just about to pass this boulder and a chipmunk appears in the split.
   Watching curiously...
  We come closer and she is still there, with these widely opened eyes, trying to figure our next move.
   There is this feeling that she is on alert, but wants to stay as long as we are here.
 
   So we stay and she stays, looking at each other... 

BE Curious

Great Brook Farm State Park, Massachusetts

  and charmingly genuine... 

Angles of View

Fresh Pond, Cambridge, Massachusetts

A place where many come to enjoy circling around the pond...
   ... a runner's track, a walker's trail... or a pathway to nature...
       I guess it all depends on the angles of view...

Something SO Familiar

Moore's Swamp, Concord, Massachusetts

Jorgen Randers writes in his 2052 book, a global forecast for the next 40 years:

My third initial reaction to the summary of my forecast... is despair. Fear of losing it all... this is not fear for loss of my own well-being. I am comfortable now, and will be long dead when crisis strikes. It is more intense anxiety about the fact that humanity will voluntarily destroy the wonderful world as we know it... In short, I am scared on behalf of what it has taken nature hundreds of millions of years to create...

... Piping Plovers...

... Chipmunks are not threatened... not yet...
   ... she looks at me... I look at her... something SO familiar in her eyes...
