Under the Gardiner : Mimico Creek

Concrete. Greenery on the edges. Cars racing above on the bridges (Gardiner, railway, etc.). Tent under most southern one (ramp off the Gardiner heading east). Entered ravine on south side of that ramp. Low flow. High vegetation in the bush this time of year, or it has grown quite a bit from last year. Some leaves are starting to change. We spotted a mammal. Can you tell me what it is? North of the bridges, the City of Toronto and/or Toronto and Region Conservation have created a formal gravel trail where there used to be a soft earth path. It is quite wide. Some trees have been planted along the path. Understand they will one day connect this to make a continuous path south to Lake Shore Boulevard West. Heading that way, we managed to stop at the farmers' market at mouth of Mimico Creek (Humber Bay Park West parking lot) on way home. Lots of love to those growing and sharing their harvest.
