Holland Landing appears to be a suburban community and has no historical buildings. When Hurricane Hazel struck here in 1954, Holland Marsh disappeared under 6 – 9 m of water and the nearby village of Ansnorveldt was destroyed.
There is, however, a large forest and I had a good walk here on this day.

NATURE POETRY
Would that thou could’st last for aye,
Merry, ever-merry May!
Made of sun-gleams, shade and showers,
Bursting buds, and breathing flowers. – William D. Gallagher (1808ā94)

Gorgeous and delightful. Such beautiful pictures! You’re developing a second (or is it third?) career as a nature photographer. Thanks, Miles!
What gorgeous photos today!
The animals posed nicely, the flowers showed off their beautiful colours, nature was beautiful today!
A lovely bright day.
Thank you.
