An early spring hike in the Ministik Bird Sanctuary southeast of Edmonton. Will I find some spring to help thaw my winter-frozen brain?

I did a loop hike over what has become very familiar ground today. But even on familar paths, the experience of them is always changing.

Seven Persons is a hamlet in Cypress County, Alberta about 20 km southwest of Medicine Hat. There are various stories about how the hamlet got it’s name.
