Yes, that and the smell of mushrooms!
Oh, I haven't been outside for so long. I really long to find someone to go out with, then walk in the woods and smell the wood, the mushrooms, the watery smell that emerges from small cricks.
The sounds are so good, too; crackling leaves almost make me afraid to step on them for fear of breaking them, then making it impossible for me to move because this one, no, that one, no; that one! is so beautiful with its slowly receding flesh, its veins defying decay, so fragile but so resistant, still.

@ellamster Yes, I'm with you on all those smells! I miss them very much too, being mostly a shut-in these days. However, I did get out for a 10 minute walk this morning in the cool autumn air - the first walk in 4 or 5 weeks due to my never ending health crises. Lol
No forest these days though - just the noisy traffic whizzing by on the street where my seniors' facility is! But I still enjoyed the sunshine, the cool breeze (wind) ruining my hairdo, and the glorious smell of autumn.
It's good to be alive!

That is so poetic! And so apt. I was focused on leaves and lichen yesterday. Other years, I have photographed the fungi and moss....
