Green and growing, ferns, berries cougars,, etc.



One of my favorite places on the trails is where the ferns grow tall.... it seems very tropical.
Yesterday it was very buggy , but usually it's not too bad. A year ago today we saw the cougar and it stayed around for about a month. I have not seen nor heard it but I do think of it when we're out walking in the trails.

The regulars on walks are Sulatna and Chena and we add in others on a rotation. Sulatna loves to be in front of the camera... we always say she is much smarter than we even know, but here she is trying to get in front of Chena as I snapped a photo. Sometimes they're like children.

The blackberries are full of blossoms and beautiful (and full of bees). The next batch of flowers are the field flowers, orange and yellow. We call them Indian Paintbrush, but technically they are not. They are a bit later this year.
