Woodland

This view is into the woodlands that border the town of Innisfail. This is one row of houses from where my cousin leaves in (sub)urban comfort. These woods are used by deer to lie up in, and the occasional moose (or so I have been told), especially when the weather is bad. On the evening I visited there was a mix of light snow and rain falling, so I did not venture into them.

The homes that border these woods have left their backyards open to them. I think that exemplifies much of the Canadian attitude towards those that share the natural world with us. Something to be learned by us aussies!
