Back to Frontenac Park

Another trip to Frontenac Park; this time spring had well and truly sprung!

A Trillium - the provincial flower of Ontario

Beaver dam


Most of the snakes we came across slithered very quickly into the bushes. This one, however, stuck around and acted a bit more assertively: shaking its tail and making aggressive motions. The park rangers later identified it as a Milk Snake, and quite unusual to come across.
Eastern Milk Snake

 And just down the path from the snake was this turtle taking the sun.
Blanding's turtle

 The beavers may have killed this old tree, but it's still standing!

Leopard frog

The blurry animal in the water is a beaver!
