Visiting the Brick Pond: Take 1

It’s been the rainiest spring I can remember, and it felt good to get out yesterday and today to visit a favorite local wetland. I wasn’t prepared for photos, so most of these were taken via my phone.

My daughter and I took our walk in the early afternoon, and we enjoyed so many sights and reminders of natural wonders that we returned in the evening with my husband and other daughter.

It may sound strange, but the “jackpot” sighting for me was a tree frog! I’ve heard them many times but never seen one. As we were heading back in the evening, the frogs were holding forth, and I just managed to sneak up on one and actually get a glimpse of one of these amazing croakers.

This album captures some of the sights. My daughters and I actually found ourselves back there today, but those pics will be for another post.
