I've been in south Georgia for 2 weeks, riding almost every day. I have a hilly 20 mile route and every time I've ridden I've seen something. Yesterday was the best. Coming home, about 5 miles away I hear the trees/bushes rustling. I hope and pray it's not a dog. The next thing I see is a huge doe bounding across the street to the other side of the woods. Holy crap, the first thing I thought of was, "imagine my luck, being broadsided by a deer". Off she went, too cool. Ten minutes later I see a huge black thing in the road. Hoping it's just tire tread, no joy, it's a king snake. Off he went as well. I really need to start bringing my camera.
I didn't take my camera with me today. I was out early so I saw the sun come up over the treetops. I saw chipmonks, squirrels, lots of turtles (one crossed the road in front of me), ducks, geese, several herons (1 stood about 100 feet from me in the edge of the water when I stopped for a snack. That's close for a heron. They used to fly away as soon as they saw me coming, but now they're getting used to me and don't fly away so much.) There were boat loads of summer school students on a field trip. A little boy (about 3 years old) fishing with his dad waved at me each time I rode by. Lots of other people wave and ask me how far I've ridden as I go by. A bee landed on my hand while I was riding. Thankfully, it only stayed there about a second!
