Corbin Jordan 4 th hour Nature Its 6: 30 in the morning. Its dark, cold and snowing. We pull into the woods and unload the truck. We walk over to the blind and sit down. We wait. Off to the right some birds chirp.
Off to the left a squirrel jumps along the tree tops. Behind us we can hear some turkeys crashing into the ground. We can feel the wind coming in through the holes in the blind. The smell of fresh air makes me not want to leave the woods. I take it all in one bit at a time.
The sun is just starting to come over the horizon. Its peaceful and beautiful. Even though we are there for only 10 and a half hours, it feels like an eternity. This is the time when i feel most connected to nature. This is the time where all you can hear is the animals running around. This is the time where I feel good.
I love deer hunting, not only because I get to shoot at a deer and and eat it, but because its quiet and peaceful. The woods is a place where I can get away from all the commotion and craziness of the world. In the woods I feel like I have become connected with the woods. The wind that blows through the trees makes me think that the forest is trying to tell me something. Even if I don’t get anything that day I will still feel good about myself and all that is around me.
I love sitting in the woods and thinking. Its peaceful and beautiful.
