Exploring Nature

 
Since a girl I have rambled, down green forest paths on hikes; roaming the woods around home, wanting to wander beyond. I . . . a nature wayfarer, collecting rocks and odd things; on my walk !

Rachel, thank you so much for the compliment, appreciate, lately my walking buddy and me are taking notice of the birds returning from migration back to Canada, then I look them up on the internet at home, the last one was a red-winged black bird ~ ~
