Hi Maureen

Thanks for organizing today's walk. I had a good time shooting with you and Janet and I enjoyed the amazing weather and photography. The conversations were interesting as well. And this was my first time to the park and I will be going back again so thanks for the introduction to a great spot.

I hope I can make it to the Humber walk next week as it should also be a great.

DG

Thanks Daryl and Janet for coming out on the walk. It was great shooting with both of you.

In the winter months you get some ice formations along the shoreline and if the marsh is not frozen over you can see some of the birds that remain behind.
