Perfect summer evening

Despite all the people in the park, I saw two deer tonight. The first was a buck who waded right across Shingle Creek and up the bank into the tall grass. I just caught him out of the corner of my eye and didn't manage to get my camera out in time. I hurried a bit further down the trail thinking I might run into him again but instead out popped a doe. I stupidly had my camera on a video setting so here is my first video for the blog.
Tons of rabbits out tonight. I caught this one standing on his hind legs to munch on some cattails. One more different colored Iris to add to my collection. Spent a while at the southern end of the creek just watching all the action near the water. Carp, Egrets and Green Herons were everywhere. Later the sunset turned the sky pink.
