Spaghetti Island
Why is there so much bird shit here? I guess birds really love this place.
We find 2 dead crows and a backpack with only men’s running shoes inside.
There are levels of vegetation: grass, daffodils, rhododendron, tall evergreen trees.
I feel a bit on display to all the cars driving by, they are probably wondering what we are doing.
But also private, can’t imagine we would meet anyone here. Someone has gardened a bit here on one side,
probably not since last year. There is this kind of intentionally planted trio of bushes and someone must
have mowed the grass.
Near the highway the grass gross in tune with the cars. The motion of the cars and the splashing water makes
the grass grow diagonally away from the road. There are sediments pushed by car wind into pretty little patterns.
It’s really loud. Under the road at one point it makes a deep bump-bump sound every time a car goes over.
Stand there and listen to it for a while.
