Waterway at bottom of slope where we saw tiny minnows swimming today.
Eyelash lichen with hairs growing from it down by the waterway.
Oyster mushrooms sporing on a tulip poplar stump.
Running cedar in the paw paw grove.
Another downy rattlesnake orchid spotted right off of the main clearing up top.

We went over today and we are almost finished insulating the shed. We also chopped up several trees we had felled a few weeks ago and brought them home to burn. One was a black cherry with black knot fungus and the other was a standing dead tree. We walked down North Trail and around the bottom. We crossed over the waterway to explore some in the paw paw grove and up the Ridge Trail. It was a gorgeous day. We were very pleased to find the tiny minnows in the waterway.
