Today on the trail

It was a lovely afternoon for a walk.

Lots of Mallards on the river.

Signs of fall fading, sliding towards winter.

A freight train rumbled by.

And I got to meet Stewie, the pot-bellied pig. I've seen a fair bit of wildlife on this trail, but this was a first. He was actually quite cute and allowed me to pet his snout. When I took this photo his human was trying to tempt him (with a treat) to sit. Emmmm, not so much....cute but stubborn.

    Seems to strange to see Autumn when it's so hot and nearly summer here!

  8. Great photo of Stewie - I see he has only 3 legs. I guess a pig that pretty, you don't eat all at once!
