If you look close behind the deer in this picture, you will see two more hiding! I don't often see deer in the park, they seem to hide deep early in the morning. Over the years, I have seen chipmunks, rabbits, frogs, turtles, and of course lots of squirrels and several types of birds.
Windsor and Essex county has natural savanna forests; this year we are enjoying lots of rain, and the streams are full (of course many farmers are complaining because of too much rain, and their farms were late in seeding). I guess you can't make everyone happy all the time!
I enjoy this picture of the geese on the log, to me it is such a peaceful picture of the little family. It is always such a thrill to see wildlife in the park, I usually go to see the plants, and just enjoy the quiet and serene ambiance, I take pictures, and pray, and just enjoy the peace. Paul likes to join me when he can, He enjoys the quiet and the peaceful surroundings too.
At the beginning of the park the trails are concrete but as you go further in the park, they are chip wood, made from the clearing of dead wood in the forest area. I hope you are enjoying this walk in the woods of Windsor too.Have a great day,
Phoebe

ahh, Phoebe, the beauty of the forest is truly something to relish. I haven't seen deer in some time with the few hikes I've taken this summer, as it was too hot and misquotey (if there's such a word) to partake of such pleasures! The photos you posted of the deer and geese are just as I remember them...grazing in the grass, setting themselves upon the shore...all beautiful as nature designed them to be!
