Dangerous High Bridge
Public Service Announcement Refreshing air fills your lungs, 420 feet above the river. Inhale the sweet aroma of evergreen trees, and experience scents the wind brings to you. The cascading, rushing river renews life. Ravens and eagles soar, calling in joyous freedom, catching updrafts. Giant evergreen trees stack the hillsides or create river turns with their fallen branches. Some days, clouds of cumulus, stratus, or cirrus float above, shifting into animal shapes. Vaping or smoking sullies the clean air. Forbidden. Campfires, loud music, and alcohol drinking and partying destroy the serenity. Forbidden.

That quiet pause between bites says more than the action itself. A calm breath in the middle of winter. 💖
I sees another Andi nature poem and image, I click I read I smile. Well done and crikey that woodpecker is huge.
I love woodpeckers, even though one was giving me a lot of grief when the supporting beam of my chimney was rotting.
Awww, so adorable! 😍😍😍😍😍
