10 a.m. start. The weather was gray and damp and the wind periodically sent a chill. So it was no wonder only a small group took advantage of this 90 minute walk.
This time I did not bring my camera or use my phone to take pictures. I did not bring a notepad to jot down notes. Instead, I just listened and enjoyed.
Next weekend is the bird watching walk. Looking forward to that.
