First visit this year to the Longueuil Regional Park

Longueuil Regional Park
With such an early Spring this year, I decided to visit the Regional Park in Longueuil to see what it had to offer. Things are really greening-up

One thing I noticed that was different this year from previous years was the number of Canada Geese.

Canada Geese
I'd not seen more than three or four geese in the past. This year I saw easily six geese in various areas of the Park.

Mallard Drake
Another oddity was I only saw one set of Mallard ducks. Usually there are easily a half a dozen in the ponds and the marsh.

But one thing is for certain, the Park is greening up quite well and I look forward to many more visits this year.

Meandering Creek
Hope you enjoyed the photos.

Visiting Longueuil's Regional Park

  One of the ponds
One of my favourite places to visit with my camera is the regional park in Longueuil, Quebec.

Located within a 25 minute drive from my house, it is a wonderful location to take pictures.

The Marsh

Whether in the Spring which brings the ducks and geese or in the Fall with its vibrant colours I always find something of interest to photograph.

The following are a few of the shots I've taken in the park over the past year.
