Title: Easter Sunday at the Arsenal Lands
Post by: ravynne40 on April 05, 2010, 04:42:20 PM

Was hoping to get out to High Park but that didn't happen so I made the best of it and snuck away over to the Arsenal Lands in Mississauga..its pretty incredible once you go through the fence! There is a small pond with many reeds and those bushy tall things (not sure what they were called) and two small swampy areas further southwest of the Black water tower.

Great photos, nice shot of the kestrel and mockingbird. Love it when a mocking bird sings and mimics other birds. Music to my ears.

Fantastic shot of the Mocking Bird and I love how the sun shows off the colour of the Swallow.
Great photos Irene.
