Unique View of Pilot Mountain
December 28, 2011
North Carolina has a very unique natural feature
called Pilot Mountain, which appears to rise out of nowhere.
Native Americans were said to use it as a landmark
and called the mountain Jomeokee –
The “Great Guide” or “Pilot”.
~~~
This view overlooks Lake Larissa,
a man-made lake in a beautiful setting.
I’m lucky enough to work just a few
minutes away from this area.

Click on the first photo to enlarge and
see if you can find the ducks on the lake,

Click on the second photo to make out the unusual
shape of Pilot Mountain a little better.

Click here and here to see more photos taken of Pilot and
the view from the overlook at the state park.
~~~~~
The trails at Pilot Mountain State Park are also
part of the NC Birding Trails.

Spring Friends
May 5, 2011
Look who we ran into on our walk to the pond ~
An Eastern Towhee who wasn’t shy at all.
He and his mate kept singing back and forth to each other
while they watched us from their perches in the trees.

This time we were being watched…
February 26, 2010
While we were bird-watching
along Salem Creek Trail,
we got the feeling
we were being “people-watched”.
