Moving Into May
April 30 to May 5, 2018
April 30
May 5 - And, suddenly ...
What a difference, just sliding from
one month into another!
From Cottonwood Pond and the woodland
being green, but somewhat sparse …
April 30
… to such lush greenery that I could
hardly see through the woods, or down to Cottonwood Pond.
May 5
The inside of the woods was darker,
too, as sunlight could not so easily penetrate.
And – look at this … the “Goblin”
had changed!

May 5
There was one large snout under two
beady, heavily-lidded eyes. By May 5, it looked more like a deep-sea
creature, perhaps working its way through the soggy Cottonwood Pond
area.
May 5 - the "Goblin" down there
Birdsong echoed through the dense
woodland …
April 30 - White-Throated Sparrow
… while plants on the woodland floor
stretched upward and outward, filling in the scene even more, and
tree leaves expanded.
April 30 - Mayapples on a slope

May 5
Going down to Cottonwood Pond would
become a very different experience after this.
