the Way of the Turtle

1 Mile Walk at Five Rivers EEC
Tuesday, September 30, 2014

Just a very short walk at Five Rivers, around the Beaver Pond and on part of the woodlot trail. The Beaver Pond heron was preening (and scratching for one long while) and there were a few turtles enjoying the last remnants of the day's sunshine. Not too many people on the trail, but when I got back to the car the lot was packed and there was a fairly noisy group gathered at the shelter right next to the lot - I suspected some sort of "learn to walk/run" group for women (and I was right - I'm pretty sure it was the AREEP's "New Beginnings" program.) So good timing on my part - had I gotten there later than I did or had I been planning on a longer walk I'd have found the crowd very frustrating.
