All's quiet in the #kettlemorainestateforest campground today. It's closed until around May 1st. This exact spot is where my little kitty got lost in the woods for 3 days when a sudden storm blew down my screen tent. I hung some of my smelly shirts in the bushes and she found her way back! Relief!

A pair of white-tailed deer in a field. The foreground is green grass and the background is tall brown plants. The two deer look identical. Both of their bodies are facing right, but both have their heads up and facing the camera. They are all brown except for the white tails, which are hanging down. There is a white or tan circle around the eyes and the same above its black nose. They are standing just a few feet apart.

A goldenrod crab spider on a green plant. The spider is facing left. It is almost completely white, with two vertical red stripes on its abdomen and a small red strip across its face. The legs are spread wide, which looks like a crab. They can also move sideways like a crab.
