The Ficly format lends itself quite well to impressionistic pieces like this, and I think this works. Some nice nature descriptions in here, and I think you capture that sense of separation: observing the natural world, but somehow never being a part of it, that stewardship implies.

I found A glimpse of white down below draws me to a fallen log where tree fungus grew as big as plates-serving dishes from some small folks’ dinner perhaps slightly awkward – ‘grows’ for ‘grew’ would keep the tense consistent.

Thank you, I started out in the past tense and changed it to present tense but caught that mistake after I posted it! I struggle with punctuation and grammar sometimes…:>(

Lovely and heartfelt. I like the attention to detail and the jarring way the narrator experiences the intrusion of human noise.

Thank you!
