A little nature preserve off M5 in Commerce (or Walled Lake?). It really is a beautiful setting, and it will be nice to go there during the other seasons of the year as well (and after I have a little more experience under my belt). Its huge though, I would have taken more pictures than this had it not been about 10 degrees outside. By the time I got to the bridge in the pictures (which is near the front of the preserve), I couldnt feel my fingers and had to go back to my car :( The swans came right up to me at the lake (I presume its because they are used to being fed by humans). Hope you enjoy. And this gallery will grow with time as I get more opportunities to head out there.

Covered walking bridge....nice place to fish off of.
Amber waves of grain?
Oh look, a stick.
It appears I have attracted the attention of the locals
"Here's lookin' at you"
An awkward sign I noticed out my mirror as I packed up my camera in the parking lot of the preserve. WTF?
Riverside.
Oh look, trees and snow, something Michigan excels at : )
