Hanging By A Strand

1 note above!

Yesterday when I was up on the ridge with Moosie and Zoe, I saw this leaf just ahead of me on the trail. I made sure to keep the dogs away so I could get some pictures because just a strong breeze would jostle this leaf from its tenuous hold on that dried grass! Take a look at my note I've added to understand just how incredible this "caught leaf" is! Believe it or not, finding these seemingly impossible situations are actually pretty easy to do! It's the sheer number of leaves falling from trees combined with the many possible places that each leaf can fall which raises the possibility of crazy landings like this one. I would say though, that this particular leaf is very unusual...what are the odds?!!! It's mind-boggling!!
