15 Nov/16

Went down to the river today (Churchill park). Lots of birds around - chickadees, nuthatches and at least one downy woodpecker. Nothing on the river though. It's amazing how much diverse the Life is in that little band of woodland along the river - in Parker I rarely hear any of the common birds. It may be that there is more food to be found at the feeders set up by people, or it may be that the river bush is somehow more diverse. In any case, it's comforting to know that the birds are still around, and although they can't understand the weather, that they have some leeway this fall to fatten up.

Lots of footprints along the mud beside the river. May be deer, beaver, muskrat, water birds, or even dogs. Didn't venture down into that gumbo to see just what they were.
