Surf’s (not really) up!

Unusually cool today. Very few people on beach, but lots of surfers. Doing their best to catch shitty waves. I counted almost 30 in the water.

Whoa now

Blocking the path today: Culebra Marrón – Clelia rustica. Never aggressive, though we didn’t know that at the time. Probably a meter long.

A tree grows from a tree

A pine tree grows out of another (from seed). It will be interesting to watch what happens as the stump rots away.

Crazy tiny ants

Very busy tiny red ants we’ve never seen before, on the dog walk today.

End of 2019

Lovely summer year-end day in Uruguay.

Mushrooms, mushrooms

Past-prime mushroom fading back into a burned stump. The area we walk in suffered a serious fire ten years ago.
