A stroll in the swamp

The snow is all but gone, Easter is here and the sun is shining. Looks like a good day for a walk at Stoney Swamp in west Ottawa whilst Daniel got some peace and quiet at home to study (the inside of his eyelids!).
I'm not sure why we bothered taking the stroller on the walk, it was quite bumpy so we carried Sarah virtually all the way!

Who's this with big ears?

...and even a chipmunk poked his nose out of a tree trunk to check that Spring is really here....





Last weekend Natalie and Madisyn came up here for the day so it was a chance for the cousins to get together again for a few hours.





Duet at the piano!










Someone's getting tired...
