So nice to not have to get on the road. We slept in and had a leisurely coffee and breakfast with Brit and Rick and then discussed plans for the next few days.
 |
First we drove out to the cottage owned by Brit's son Thomas and his wife, Alex, that they use for AirBnB.
|
 |
On the Mira River. Very windy today.
|
 |
They had guests due to arrive that afternoon
|
 |
so we got to pop in
|
 |
and take a look.
|
 |
The high point is the sauna overlooking the river. All Brit could get was reflections when she tried to take a picture of us in there.
|
 |
I could just stay in there.

They are also finishing up a cottage next door, also beautiful with 2 bedrooms. This one has a hot tub!

Next stop was Two River Wildlife Park. Photo by Brit.
|
 |
In the first enclosure, a beautiful moose.
|
 |
Huge. He made us realize we really did not want to come across one on the highway.
|
According to the website the animals have either been born in captivity or rescued and can no longer live in the wild.
 |
It was a lovely walk, (Pussy willow)
|
 |
through the woods (Coltsfoot)
|
 |
between the enclosures, holding mostly North American wildlife. (Lichen)
|
 |
Red Fox
|
 |
I just missed one snapping at the other "leave me alone".
|
 |
"I just want to sleep in the sun"
|
 |
Rough Legged Hawks.
|
 |
Great Horned Owls.
|
 |
A "blue coloured" Arctic Fox.
|
 |
| Wolf. |
 |
A very angry little Lynx.
|
 |
There was lots of Fiona damage in evidence
|
 |
An article, on line, said that although enclosures were damaged none of the animals were injured or escaped.
|
 |
We stopped in the petting zoo and then came home for wine, in the sun, on the front porch.
