Carson Hill 📎More progress on that <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/canoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#canoe</a> I posted about a while back! <a href="https://mastodon.social/@dicenbuttons/114100744451105307" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://mastodon.social/@dicenbuttons/114100744451105307</a>It's neat to see it slowly taking shape; I have no idea when (or if) the folks carving it will ever finish it, but it's cool in either case.Bonus <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/moss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#moss</a> picture from the same walk. Take care of yourselves, humans.

Carson Hill 📎Noticed a couple <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ants</a> today on my walk that seemed to be... fighting was my first thought, but is almost certainly wrong. Communicating, I would guess, though it looks to me like one of those slap-fights in cartoons.<a href="https://sauropods.win/@futurebird" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@futurebird</a> probably knows what they're up to.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/awalkaday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#awalkaday</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pnw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pnw</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/insects" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#insects</a>

Carson Hill 📎A few photos from today's walk at <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/DashPoint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DashPoint</a>. A walk through the woods, followed by a bunch of gardening work, has laid me low. 7 miles today according to my Fitbit. Am tired. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/awalkaday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#awalkaday</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fungi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fungi</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/lichensubscribe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lichensubscribe</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mosstodon</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pnw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pnw</a>

Carson Hill 📎(1/3) My wife and I went to visit the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/RhododendronSpeciesBotanicalGarden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RhododendronSpeciesBotanicalGarden</a> in <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/FederalWay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FederalWay</a> again today, and MOAR things are blooming now than a few weeks ago. Spring is upon us, and my sense of impending doom greatly enjoyed the escapism it had to offer.Of course, now she wants a couple-couple-couple-couple-couple <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/camelias" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#camelias</a>.

Carson Hill 📎A few photos from today's walk! The Wayerhauser building was looking especially pretty today.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Fasting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fasting</a> today, which always makes my walks feel distinctly *different.* Part of that is mild hunger, weakness that's more psychosomatic than actually real. Part is a perceived lightness, as though I could run faster and just higher. I find myself taking slower steps in contrast to that feeling, deeper breaths. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mosstodon</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/awalkaday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#awalkaday</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bloomscrolling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bloomscrolling</a>

Carson Hill 📎(2/2) On my return to work, I spotted this <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BananaSlug" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BananaSlug</a>! I don't normally notice them eating, and it took me 4 shots (he was shy and kept hiding) to get a decent video that wasn't all shaky. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/awalkaday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#awalkaday</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/invertebrates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#invertebrates</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pnw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pnw</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/slugs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slugs</a>

Carson Hill 📎(1/2) Timing was perfect today to avoid getting rained on; all the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mosses" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mosses</a> were wet and happy.Part 2 is a quick video of a slug munchin' on a bit of leaf, by the by.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mosstodon</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/lichensubscribe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lichensubscribe</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fungi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fungi</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bloomscrollong" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bloomscrollong</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/awalkaday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#awalkaday</a>

Carson Hill 📎A few photos from today's visit to <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/DashPointWA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DashPointWA</a> in <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/FederalWay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FederalWay</a>. My wife and I caught an unexpected low tide during our visit and mostly just walked on the beach. I've never seen this many <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SandDollars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SandDollars</a> in Washington before, there were thousands of them! Only seen that before in Oregon. Had to be careful where we stepped at some points. Two pictures here to demonstrate it, since the zoomed-out one doesn't really do it justice. Each of those dark lines is a sand dollar. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/awalkaday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#awalkaday</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pnw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pnw</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/beaches" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#beaches</a>

Carson Hill 📎I love this stump. I've shared pictures of it before here, it's got different cool stuff growing on every side. Some lipstick <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/lichens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lichens</a>, several kinds of <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/moss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#moss</a>... it's just great. Five star stump.Extra bonus picture of the sky overhead, a gorgeous day for a walk before the rain starts up.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mosstodon</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/lichensubscribe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lichensubscribe</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/clouds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#clouds</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/awalkaday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#awalkaday</a>

Carson Hill 📎A fungal fence post for the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/lichensubscribe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lichensubscribe</a> crowd, captured during today's walk. Also featured, a plum tree blossom from my yard this morning.Overall, a fine day for small things.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/awalkaday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#awalkaday</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bloomscrolling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bloomscrolling</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mosstodon</a>

Carson Hill 📎A log full of shelf <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fungi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fungi</a> to brighten your day.Take care of yourselves, humans. These are dark times, but even in darkness it's possible to find strength.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/FungiFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FungiFriday</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/awalkaday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#awalkaday</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ShelfFungi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ShelfFungi</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mosstodon</a>

Carson Hill 📎Out on my walk today I realized I could hear <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/frogs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#frogs</a> over the audiobook playing in my ears. Took a short detour from the trail to the sound's source, though I didn't manage to actually spot the vocalists. I find it remarkable sometimes that creatures so loud - typically frogs, birds, and grasshoppers - can still remain practically invisible. Maybe you can spot one in this video (I can't) but regardless, I invite you to enjoy their song. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/marshmadness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#marshmadness</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/awalkaday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#awalkaday</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/amphibians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#amphibians</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pnw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pnw</a>

Carson Hill 📎This was the most charming tuft of <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/moss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#moss</a> that I met on my walk today. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mosstodon</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/awalkaday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#awalkaday</a>No, I'm not just focusing on small things to distract myself from the travesty that is my government. Alright, that's exactly what I'm doing. Fine. You can't stop me.
