Unexpected Color

A surprise beneath the bridge. Photo by Bruce Stambaugh

You never know when you’ll find unexpected color. I was birding on the James River Heritage Rail Trail in Lynchburg, Virginia. After crossing the river, you enter Percival’s Island Nature Area.

Wanting closer to the water, I followed a path that led under the bridge. I stopped short when I saw this vivid street graffiti art painted on one of the bridge’s cement supports. It was the dinosaur that caught my eye.

Though I was searching for bird species, this unexpected splash of color was a pleasant surprise.
