Just 3 blocks from our house is a wonderful wetland called Reed Canyon, a part of the Reed College property. This was our adventure for today!
The sign says it’s a Wildlife Habitat, but do they know there are coyotes living there? They come wandering around our neighborhood. Good thing our kittehs stay indoors! I don’t think I want to meet one of them, but I *tried* to roll in some of their scat. Mom said it was a good thing I was on a leash….
Of course, I have to do some sniffing wherever there were posies. I try to see if they smell as nice as Mom’s.
The path was muddy in places, but we didn’t care! Well, I didn’t, anyhow. Toby didn’t either. So, that leaves Mom…. We had to jump over fallen down trees and ford a really bad section. I’d call it that because Mom had to walk on some cut up tree limbs to get through. I wish we had a picture of that! It was funny!!
PS: The lighting was weird here, so everything looks a bit funny–even my Toby!
This is Reed Lake. It suppose to be the oldest naturally occurring lake in Portland. We saw some ducks and heard a fish jump. There’s supposed to be beaver living here, but we didn’t see any. Salmon have even been seen coming up the fish ladders to spawn!
I looked. And looked, but no salmon. Toby was looking for a treat…..
I was really tempted to jump in that water, but Mom said the sign said no swimming. I guess that means me…..
We found this neat game table made of an old log. I was hoping some Reedie would come by and play a game of chess with me!
No such luck, so I guess we’ll go see what’s going on at the Saturday Blog Hop!
