About
This mural completes the Children at Play trilogy also present on Riding the Radials at 5110 and on Toboggan Hill at 5112 Dundas W.
As this area is undergoing environmental restoration, this mural is intended to educate what the creek’s former ecosystem may have looked like and what improved creek life could return to. It includes largemouth bass, rainbow trout, pumpkinseed sunfish, common shiner, white sucker and blacknose dace. Look for the common snapping turtle, the leopard frog tadpole, the diving beetle, the crayfish and the dragonfly nymph.
