I have walked on many, many sections of the Bruce Trail but have never seen the beginning of this 890 kilometre trail which mostly follows the edge of the Niagara Escarpment from the Niagara River to the tip of the Bruce Peninsula.

Several trees in the park display large crown galls:

NATURE POETRY
You will hear the beat of a horse’s feet,
And the swish of a skirt in the dew,
Steadily cantering through

As though they perfectly knew
The old lost road through the woods.

Miles Hearn

The poetry is a welcome bonus. You really do bring joy to this world. 🙏
