A Painted
Turtle (?) was enjoying the sunshine and solitude on a log
in the lake.
Near
the shore was another log just loaded with turtles! Sadly,
I was unable to get a picture of them (except for this one)
without wading in to my waist.
Somebody
was taking a dip today too.
Sharon
spied this dear little baby rabbit huddled in the bush at
the side of the path. He didn't move until a dog came along.
We saw
quite a few rabbits today. This pair sat quietly watching
the passing parade.
One of
the many benches which rim Green Lake was cradled by a beautiful
wild rose bush. It smelled heavenly!
Lovely
wild irises grew in clumps beside the lake.
A few
gorgeous yellow irises which ring the lake were in bloom
as well.
Sharon
and I made it all the way around the lake, so we celebrated
with a stop at the Chocolati
Cafe :) It was a very pleasant way to spend an afternoon.
