Many of our usual suspects have an eagle scout project that day.

The Water: She's a Runnin'

Here at the "Boy Scout Bridge",on route to Cranberry Pond, the spring waters are flowing at a good clip. The birds are out and the pond is almost melted, sure signs that spring is on it's way.

Just like this!

A beautiful, quiet walk in the Holbrook Town Forest today
revealed this artsy display; a dry beech leaf was poised
on a leaf-shaped stone along the Wiggin Trail.
Stopping to look at nature often yields such unexpected surprises.

Are there Fairies in the Forest?

Sometimes things are not as they seem; zoom in to see what this really is! A Forest Friend spotted it today off of Wiggin Trail.
