As I was heading out on my weekly excursion to the park this morning, I decided that I would hike an area that I have never been at before--the bike loop trail. Aside from getting spooked by a small animal--possibly a rabbit--due to whatever it was running right behind me when I had my audio equipment on as high as it could go, it was a fairly nice walk. I also saw two Western Thatcher Ant hills that had been ripped open by a Black Bear, and as I noticed the ants were scrambling to move the baby ants still in their white pods, I was spooked once again when I came to the conclusion that those ant hills could have been ripped open that very morning--so I walked a little faster. As usual, below are some of my favorite pictures of the day...
