fairy lake

in southampton there is a lovely little lake...
it is the perfect size for an evening 'hike' with my girls & friends.
on our hike, we saw two turtles and some very large fish
(selah, emery, ainsley and katie) 
ducks (anyone know what kind the black and white one is?)
a swan, and a muskrat.

though we forgot our quarters 
(to buy food for the animals),
we had an amazing time running around the lake, meeting some very kind locals,
and scavenging for treats for the turtles and swan.

upon return to grandma and grandad's house, 
a neighbour stopped by so he could show the girls this baby rabbit.
fell into a window well - freed after our visit
such a fun & memorable evening, 
enjoying life in small town ontario!

That's a great shot of the turtle poking his head out of the water.

Lovely photos! The colors of all the girls' clothes look so pretty against the green water. And you almost made that turtle look cute!
