This week, the Feet and Forks explored the Tacoma Nature Center at Snake Lake under a gorgeous blue sky. The mosaic at the entrance to the visitor's center would make a great quilt.
Since this is the Northwest, there also was a lot of green -- ferns, mossy tree limbs, towering evergreens ...
... punctuated by delicate spring blooms.
When I reviewed my photos, I thought the structure of this fern cluster was similar to this reflection of trees (after I turned the photo upside down):
There was a lot of activity going on in the lake, like this little duckling paddling through the plants. (He's just left of center and his coloring camouflages him pretty well. Click on the photo if you're having trouble finding him.)
We saw several duck families, most with mama keeping close to the kids.
I think this reflection easily could turn into an abstract art quilt:
Happy Trails!

I like the duck family. That would look great as a quilt.
Hello! I've just found your lovely blog, and I'm a new follower...so nice to "meet" you!
Best,
Anne
Looks like a fun place to visit. I worry about that 1 little duckling all alone - must be the adventurous one of the family, eh?
Also, in the 2nd photo I think I recognize the lady in the blue jacket to the right. IF she is also in the Harbor Wildwatch & sometimes ventures our way to attend some of our Beach Watchers' events. Can't think of her name, but I've asked her if she knew you - didn't know she was in the famous Feet & Forks, however. Small world!! (Am I correct?)
