warmth
The air warmed into the 70s by afternoon. It felt like a perfect day for a walk in the woods so I headed to Maudslay State Park.
The sky was blue when I started. I walked, noticing as time progressed that the level of light dropped and the sky was repainted in shades of gray. As I cut through a lightly traveled path near the end of my walk I started to hear scurrying noises. Apparently the squirrels and chipmunks saw my presence as a human incursion; they quickly ran to the trees to climb out of reach.
