Guarding the entrance

Scarecrow seen near the entry to Watkins Glen State Park, south of Seneca Lake, in New York’s Finger Lakes region. We didn’t go into the park because dogs weren’t allowed on the main Gorge Trail but would love to come back some time to enjoy its natural wonders.

Scary 🙂 A fun shot. It’s too bad they don’t allow dogs on the gorge trail. It is a beautiful place. V

I was wondering if you had Queenie with you. We were thinking about going to Wakens Glen and bringing the dog. Sorry to learn you can’t bring dogs there. Fun scarecrow. V
