RE: A spring walk around Tilgate Lake: My Actifit Report Card: April 5 2026

in Actifit14 days ago

I think the white gosling could be albino, but not absolutely sure as albino eyes are usually pink.

So that is called Skunk Weed! I had no idea, thanks for that. There is much more here, quite a large area.

As we were walking around the lake in the breeze, the unmistakable smell of Nordic Balsam occasionally wafted across. These trees release a lovely fresh musky scent from the new shoots. I usually first notice this while out on my mountain bike in spring.

Thanks for your reply. 😀

As the Skunk Weed matures, it will send out a distinctly 'skunky' odor! You won't be able to mistake it-trust me!

If you get back there and notice the gosling, it will be interesting to see what color it turns.

Take care and enjoy the day!

I think I have detected a strange smell in that area before as it happens. So that could be it!

I pass through Tilgate a lot on my rides, so I'll keep an eye out for the gosling. 😁

Thanks! Let me know if you spot it and what color it is. Take care and enjoy!

I will lookout for it each time I pass through which is usually a couple of times each month. 😁
