March 26, 2011 Nature Walk

Very cold and windy, probably in the mid-20's, not an ideal weather day for nature.  We heard red belly woodpeckers, and saw a song sparrow (not singing.)  Lots of beautiful green moss, some of it reproducing with fruiting bodies so thick it looked like the moss had a head of hair.  More interesting fungal growths on dead logs along pathway, some of it orange and some of it white.  Shortest walk of the year!
