Magical Mystery Falls trek...part 6


One can click on the pic to get a better idea of the swaying ferns (there are even a few Tree Ferns which I missed last time) providing a canopy over the Cave...there are myriad such caves alongside the gorge cut through by the stream.

But this cave is something special....for on one trip way back...peeking into the shadows...was an unmistakable silhouette of a medium sized animal....ears too sharp. Half-closed eyes...slightly twinkling...then they closed again. Had to be a wolf.

It was a wolf having its afternoon siesta after a little fiesta. But wolves never attack humans, not even in a pride...


Besides the mosses and the ferns....the dried fallen leaves , mainly from the oaks, form a thick layer...sometimes 2 feet....rich in beetles and other interesting creatures minding their own business...
