Going to the cottage is extra fun when we see wildlife. A few weeks ago we saw some really interesting ones.
This guy was displaying for a nearby female, who was studiously ignoring him.
I had never seen a partridge (as we call them - officially they are Ruffed Grouse) in full courting display like this. When we saw him by the side of the road, my second guess was that he was a decoration - he just looked so perfect!
Another great sighting was this young moose who came across the lake and onto shore at the cottage next to my cousin's. She stood looking at us for the longest time. Curious about the people staring at her, I suppose.
