Fall in Skallman Park:
Left : The Crabby Tree is leafless but still holds bushels of apples.
Right : Many inches of rain have fallen in the last few weeks.
Goings-on in the duck pond:
The water level is extremely high. Late last week there were a breeding pair of mallards, but they've left the pond. The newest visitor is an otter who seems to be here for the Frog Smorg.
He swam close to pond's edge to investigate me ( 26 Oct 09).
Rain or Shine, grateful dogs are still loving it:
Left: Freckles with new friend ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Right: Nex awaiting a ball toss.
