We were out with the dogs for an afternoon of hiking on Chestnut Ridge. On the way, we stopped by Sugar Bay for a few pictures. There were ospreys in the nest today. The day started grey and stayed that way throughout our hike. All the recent rain had left the trail overgrown and a lush green. Ali spotted a nice grouping of rattlesnake plantain along an edge of the swamp. This was the first we had seen this summer with a number of spikes. She also spotted a reference mark for a benchmark on the return walk. We were able to locate the actual benchmark, but not the second reference mark. It was an unplanned find.
