A stop on the bridge to watch the birds, checking on the work of the local beavers, and pausing for a quiet sit-spot near the river gave us all a chance to slow down and notice the everyday wonders of the natural world.

Two people lean on the wide wooden railing of a bridge and look out over unseen water. A Common Merganser, a duck with a grey body, white breast, and red head, paddles in the river. A chewed poplar stump. The cat in sweater and harness sits in the sun-lit grass, with the person holding their leash at the edge of the frame.

The sightings could represent up to 43 different species, but many of the IDs remain unconfirmed, like this one: inaturalist.ca/observations...
