Bog Walk/Nature Notes

Autumn in Algonquin Provincial Park

Last weekend my husband and I visited a provincial park about two-and-a-half hours north of where we live. The leaves were brilliant! We decided to take a walk through a bog (a boardwalk kept us from sinking in) and this is a sampling of what we saw: a black-capped chickadee, colourful leaves and toadstools.

    What a great collection of autumnal notes - the leaves and mushrooms are brilliant! That bird shot looks very much like a Christmas card I remember from long ago, very lovely.

    I am visiting the eastern US this week and am sorry to see that the leaves have not begun to turn yet. It's been an odd year for weather.

    Lucky you, finding an autumnal bog to visit and photograph!

    =)
