Hike, Click, Hike

Exercise and fun? Really? The most fun way to exercise is when it doesn’t feel like work, don’t you think? For me, that is to hike, click, and then hike some more. Before long, I’ve covered two to six miles and taken pictures to look back on. Here are some landscapes from yesterday’s outing at Kensington Metropark.

Hike, Click, Hike. . . Repeat!

I have checked off the Chickadee Trail from my list of unexplored trails. It is a fairly easy loop trail about 2.5 miles long. If you enjoy watching birds, plan on spending extra time on this trail. There is a large variety of birds including chickadees, woodpeckers , red-winged blackbirds, and many others.

    You have got some superb photos here. I especially like the second one down, it is mysterious,and a bit spooky…I found myself peering at it to see if I could see anything creepy through the branches. Love the hike 🙂

    Hike, Click, Hike! I’m stealing that! 🙂
    I always enjoy a good walk in the park, even though they are not as lengthy as they used to be for us.
