Скачать или смотреть April at Chase County Falls

Hoping to create some impressionistic waterscape studies yesterday, I headed to the falls at Chase County lake. Except for watercress, which is green in all seasons, it's still too early for most water plants. So, as we do, I changed my focus to whatever I might discover. On a walk across a nearby meadow, still greening up after a prairie burn, something caught my attention. Still developing my "eye" for mushrooms and fungus I spotted clusters of what looked like small mushrooms nestled in with a patch of clover. Getting down low, I worked to get some quality mouse-eye-views. By touch they felt like mushrooms but I'm pretty sure I was actually doing art studies of rabbit scat.
Mostly I did video grabs with my iPhone, during which time I practiced my parseltongue with a watersnake, and watched the spring rain course over the green algae covered stones. My favorite part was watching as bubbles formed, grew - and after a few moments of suspence burst, soon to be replaced by new communities of bubbles. Creation and entropy.
