I live in an area which used to be rural but now with more and more houses being built and more people moving in to the area , I think we could call it suburbia.
We are lucky in that we are close enough to walk to the nearby shopping centre or can wander at whim through the local wild park.
This park’s trees that line the roadway also line a pretty little creek/river(this time of year it’s a creek but in winter, it’s definitely in the river categories )
The other day, we stopped to look over the bridge(bridges somehow compel one to pause and look over) and saw,
scrambling over the rocks a tidy little mink!
Meanwhile the morning traffic was thundering by on the nearby road, all passengers totally oblivious to this little creature.
A pleasant sight to begin the day with…..
