Took the Rawland Nordavinden out after breakfast, slithering through the wet air up the Minuteman to Lexington Center.
Swans and their cygnets were paddling through the duckweed in Peepers Pond, Lexington. I've never seen a jersey color-coordinated with duckweed before.
A bit of Eden seems to have visited the Minuteman this morning. A hundred yards up the Minuteman from Peepers Pond, a large doe discreetly crossed the trail. I caught her in this photo, looking back from a thicket, so perfectly camouflaged that she may as well be invisible. Perhaps she declined to be photographed, and left the frame.
I paused to get another picture of the Mile 4.0 bird totems. May they bring their clans good luck. Whoever is working so persistently and insightfully in this ancient and ephemeral medium of stone-on-stone has my sincere appreciation for these frequent glimpses into the Dreamtime.
