Hats off to the bicyclists on the Florida Trails!


Are in my case....'caps off'!


I love sharing the things I see in nature when I hike but I'll dedicate this post to the friendly people I meet on the Florida Trails!


On the section of trail that I hike, I rarely even see another hiker. I see LOTS of bicyclists though!



And they all greet me and wave when they go by. Some ask me if I've seen anything as they speed by. A few even stop to chat. 


I've learned some of my 'regulars'....people I see just about every time I hike. I recognize them by their bikes, or their helmets or their greetings! One man stopped to ask me about an ID on some birds he saw last week. He described them and I was able to tell him they were Swallow-tailed Kites. When he stopped to chat, he said, You're just the person I wanted to see today. That felt great...and it felt even better that I actually knew which birds he had seen. I've seen quite a few of them lately too!

So these are a few photos of some of my favorite people and a few Swallow-tailed Kites in flight!


Cheers to everyone that enjoys the Florida Trails!

Love One Another!
