Idyllic Parks and Cute Animals in Ashland - Oregon Trip, Part 9

Ashland is a beautiful little town, comfortably nestling in love natural environment.  The best aspect of that was that the downtown main street intersect with a lovely creek, around which was a large Lithia Park, which not only delighted visitors, but served as homes to many wonderful animals.

There were two ponds in the park - Lower and Upper Ponds, connected by the creek.  There were fish, ducks and turtles lived there:

I was able to capture the sight of three little turtles coming out of the water to sun bath.  They stayed there without moving for a long time:
