Trail Snails
Trail Snails
Neither snow, nor sleet, nor ice, nor rain may stop us, but biting insects...you bet they will. In our almost two year history, the June 12th walk was the shortest because we were being eaten alive in a spot that is typically insect free--the Mtn. Division Trail in Fryeburg.
Despite the fact that we only crawled for a half hour, we saw a ton!
Thank you to Nancy K-M, Eileen, and Bruce for making the journey and not minding when I suggested we turn around after we reached the Lupines.
On Friday, June 5th, the Trail Snails visited Notch View Farm in Chatham, New Hampshire, and donned our Blaze Orange gear to support #WearOrange in protest of gun violence.
Along the trail, we counted 26 Lady's Slippers in their pink and white versions, and saw so many other things, including a Chestnut Warbler and Hummingbirds. Well, the latter weren't exactly along the trail, but behind the farmhouse, where we had permission to spend a few moments. Thank Notch View Farm for making your land available to all. We love to visit.
