After you enter Mustatatuck, you'll make a few turns on the road and then come to Reichart Lake. Where normally there aren't much in the way of herons and geese, they seemed to mostly congregate in the lake this visit. The lilypads are really robust along the banks of the lake. As you drive the car route through the refuge, you pass many marshes and swamplands until you finally come to the two largest marshes. I always feel compelled to photograph these same two trees nearly every time I visit the refuge. They just seem to beckon to be photographed so I ablige. Upon leaving the refuge, I encountered several large deer along the road and one eating along the side of the road. I guess all this rain we've had has left them with food aplenty. Enjoy!
