Hi All,
The plan was to paddle the Silver River with Joe & Sandra. However, the weather was iffy so we stayed in the forest. A morning hike around the campground perimeter revealed a snake across the trail and a great raccoon paw print on a sand mound created by a scarab beetle. We also spotted a depression in the sand obviously dug out by an animal, containing what looked like cat scat. We decided it was from a bobcat.
Near sunset we drove to a nearby cluster of trees with Red Cockaded Woodpecker nests. We didn't see the birds but did notice how the Forest Service had protected the trees during the recent prescribed burn.
We also enjoyed a beautiful sunset.
Love
Sandy & Carl
