North Glenmore Park, September 30, 2023

Saturday arrived chilly and wet. It was also the sixth month anniversary, so I wanted to be outside. It was surprising that the Nature Calgary Field Trip at North Glenmore park wasn't cancelled, but six of us ventured out into the drizzle and chill.  I left my birding camera at home and was glad that it didn't get exposed to the weather. It is weatherproof, but why chance problems. It was not an exciting day for birds, but the rain eventually tapered off. The colours were rich and vibrant and the wet, cold feet were worth it.

We don't get much red in Alberta during the fall, but this pretty little pond in the park had a sparkling of red.

Although we walked on a lot of grass, there are some nice trails through the park.

North Glenmore Park is right across the Glenmore Dam from Heritage Park. Heritage Park almost looks like an island in this photograph.
