Valley Oak, Quercus lobata on the banks of Cache Creek.
Walking along at a fast pace, I almost missed the new acorns forming on the Valley Oaks. It took a very annoyed Red Shoulder Hawk to make me stop and look up, and while I did miss a shot at him, I did notice what was right in front of me. Once I spotted one, I noticed them everywhere.
Sometimes I pay more attention to the ground in front of me looking for snakes and possible tripping hazards. Slow down and look around!

Hi Char,
Brr, it's suddenly so cold here. Loud booms of thunder last night. Raining now. We need it badly. I liked your post. Similarly, I'm walking differently, using my ears, keeping my footsteps as silent as possible, listening to the birds up in the canopy. Lovely! PS. Spot is my brother's friend's Jack Russell pup.
