Wet July Walk at Five Rivers

On Friday evening I decided to go for a little walk at Five Rivers Nature Preserve, not all that far from my apartment in Delmar. It was a cloudy evening out, but with some sun peaking through the clouds.

There was lots of wildlife out there enjoying the moist weather between the bands of showers that where coming through.

Then it started to rain, so I ran over to this shelter.

And an almost mystical environment.

But it lead to some muddy boots.
