We’ve been walking through Pt. Defiance Park for two to three days a week for the last two months during our state’s lockdown. When you walk that often, you inevitably end up covering the same trails repeatedly.
No matter how many times you walk the same path it never gets boring if you spot seldom-seen birds like this Pileated Woodpecker
or encounter patches of Foxglove.
Even without birds or flowers, there is always something new to see if you take the time to really look at your surroundings.
Sometimes it’s so quiet and peaceful here that the walk becomes a walking meditation, lost in a world of green
where shadow
and light
weave their magic.
Wow! The ten thousand shades of green made of both light and shadow!
I love the pictures of light filtering through the leaves!
This is lovely. And what a treat to see a pileated woodpecker.
