IT PAYS TO SLOW DOWN AND LOOK...

I'm linking to a wonderful video that a friend just passed on to me.  It is a morning walk, last week, through Memorial Forest, right here in Sudbury, done by Christopher Renna.  Give it a watch, if only for the Barred Owl shots!  But, there is so much more to it and it really shows us why we need to slow down and look!  (Really look at the pictures of the fish eggs and watch the insects on the water! --Later: Mr. Renna said they are likely spotted salamander eggs, as they are in a vernal pool.)
