More Spring Colors

 

Some days I'm not up for much. Today was one of those days, so I kept my walk close to home - the Laguna Vista Nature Trail. There aren't nearly as many birds here as there were a month ago. A lot of those migrating visitors must have gone home. But what was lacking in the trees was made up for on the ground. There were lots of pretty flowers along the way.

I guess it's true what they say about April showers. 

A noisy brown thrasher was joyfully announcing the changes in scenery . . .

. . . while a mockingbird posed prettily.

Laguna Vista Nature Trail

 

I have known about the Laguna Vista Nature Trail since I first moved here, but I guess in the beginning I was too afraid to venture out alone - worried about creepy crawlers and such. But finally, after a friend told me that she had often gone walking on the trail without being attacked by any giant spiders or snakes, I decided to brave it. And it was just fine. 

A nice trail for walking - plenty of sunshine and very quiet. I can't say much for its beauty, as it is quite overgrown. But it is pleasant enough and provides an atmosphere for deep thought. I enjoyed it.
