Some Corvallis "Wildlife" at the Park

Since I've moved to Corvallis (yes, I finally got to move!) I've been doing a lot of walking and running around where I live now. I found this cute little park not far from where I live 

Picture of the park the first day I found it, its getting dark, but the pond looks really neat at dusk. 
Today when walking through the park, I though I saw a bobcat! I took this picture, I can still see it in the middle, can you? I'm not 100% convinced it really is a bobcat, but it's still pretty fun to think that it might be. It wasn't really that scared of people and I'm not sure if this is typical bobcat behavior or not, I'm use to seeing them run away from people pretty easily. Exciting never the less. 


The park also has a flock of ducks that I think are adorable. The run up to any new person the inters the park. They are obviously use to being fed, despite the signs around the park asking you not to feed the birds. 

They really wanted some of my bagel. But I didn't share with them. 

Once they realized I wasn't sharing they wondered away, but for some reason ran back to me when I opened my  iced coffee. Weird ducks. 
 This last picture is another park picture, you can kind of see on the far side of the pond there is a guy setting on a bench under the tree. This guy biked to the park and was playing his violin. It was amazing! Beautiful free music in the park, and just randomly too. At first I was the only other person at the park, and then this mother and her two kids showed up as well (they are in the picture too.) The oldest kid thought that the violin playing guys was absolutely amazing. It was cute to watch.


This morning at the park there was a bunch of people doing tai-chi in the amphitheater. I kind of want to take my yoga mat down there and do some yoga at the park, but then I would be doing yoga in public, and I'm not into that idea at all. Maybe some day really early in the morning!
