The blue racer, the second-largest snake species in Ontario, is pale blue or bluish green with a white or bluish belly. Individuals can grow to almost two metres in length. It was one of many road kills this year.

 This ribbon snake is resting in the sun light deep in the forest.

Novemenber skies cover the bay.

Lots of mushrooms are evidence of the large rain fall this year. 

 This one star rental unit is available for the winter season.

 Snapping turtles are breaking out of their shell.

 This little turtle was so fast its face was out of focus!!

Here it is in the wetland for the winter.
