Split Tree Trunk

Many times we fail to notice things near or beside us.
Our human did not notice that this dead slightly tilted tree trunk beside the path has split. It was the perfect timing when the morning sun illuminated it that our human saw.
And as you can see the path is no easy walk as hikers normally look down instead of up. The path ahead is dim as sunlight do not penetrate the thick forest canopy.
As we are now experiencing daily heavy rainfall; our human will remember this spot, move a little slower and to look not only down at the path but up as well.
You may never know, a broken branch may hang delicately above and fall anytime.

Walk easy, walk gently. Treat the forest well and it will treat you well.

Yes, it pays to see all around. Hopefully no branches or slippery slopes after the rain will hinder your humans walk.

That's a lovely image - but also shows there may be danger lurking for the unobservant! YAM xx

How nice that the conditions were perfect for your human to see that during that walk! Glad to hear she knows to be careful for next time.

Yes, you don't want to be in the way when that comes down.
