Enchanted wood

Maybe I spend too much time in the patch of woods within our yard. At least once during the day you can find me, camera in hand, wandering around, looking for changes. Maybe a new mushroom or turned leaf will catch my eye.

The other day it was this spider web. The sun was glinting off what looked like a sticky trail within in. Very odd.

The more I studied this photo, the more intrigued I became. Turned on its side, the sticky trail is surely a dragon in disguise. Can you see his head turned just so? The arched neck? The long, lovely wings spread wide? Tell me you see him too!

It makes sense since this is the part of the woods where the faerie was seen.

The web changed yet again when I took a photo with the flash.

I do think this part of my yard is special. It keeps drawing me back in. The bear the other day thought so too when he took a nap in the same area. Is it in my imagination?

It’s beautiful and very magical. Watch our that you don’t get stuck in the web, though, OK?

wow, i do see it.

despite my aversion to anything resembling snail slime…
that is amazing.

I saw it in the 2nd picture.  The first one just made me think about the snail trail I found inside my shoe that I had left on the porch. 

I do indeed think you have a magical forest.

Reya: don’t worry I won’t!

Letty: I know, its bizarre!

Susan: you can’t see it in the first photo; I didn’t either. ewww, nothing like snail slime in your shoes!
