Haunted woods

Forget lions and tigers and bears (oh my). These woods have stuffed, headless beings hanging from the trees. I've wandered in a time or two and always wonder if I'm being watched. Not far from where this hangs, the land dips into a stream bed. At the bottom is a shelter built from fallen trees, branches, and old tarps.

There are other man-made articles hanging from other trees around this spot.

I don't know if it's a kids' fort or the makeshift home of a vagrant. I hope it's the former. I've never seen an actual person here, and I'm not sure I want to. I took this photo from the relative safety of the road with my telephoto lens.

  2. If you go out in the woods today,
    You'd better not go alone.
    It's lovely out in the woods today,
    But safer to stay at home.

  4. If you haven't seen the Blair Witch Project (movie), you probably shouldn't.
