An Assabet Siesta

I wasn't the only one looking for a little relief from the heat along the Assabet River yesterday.  The above two deer were wiling away the afternoon by a slough upriver from Pine Street in Concord.

At another slough just upriver from Route 2 this deer was spotted through the grass...

Its curiosity brought it closer...

Thanks to the day's light breeze the shady spots provided an oasis.

Route 62 in West Concord...

Trash was on the light side...
