Near Grasslands National Park, Saskatchewan by Korice Moir
While walking down to the ravine, a deer plunged into the creek and ran through it to the other side. It surprised me as I didn't see it before it jumped in. After it got up onto the bank, it stopped and looked at me for a few seconds, then bounced away. It was wonderful!
