8/14/15 City Forest

Kelley was a little stiff this morning so I decided a short visit to the forest and especially the beaver pond was in order.

The beaver pond continues to shrink



but there's still water for kelley


Lots of reeds floating on the water- don't know how that came about


but it didn't bother Kelley


We walked a short distance on the West Trail - few deer flies - and met a regular and her dog - friends of Kelley - and then headed back.

I got a few pictures











Kelley had another go at the pond and the pleasant hour seemed to be enough for Kelley

    Very nice flowers today.
    Any idea on the pink flowers in the top photo? Looks a bit like lythrum.

      Thank you Sue - I am sadly lacking in botanical knowledge but i think you are correct- purple loosestrife
