Last week, I went for a limited stroll along Buffalo Creek near Beatty’s Mill. This was a mill of times past, south of Worthington, Pennsylvania. I walked carefully as my knee is still I the mending stage of the healing. Of course that means walking softly on any rocks, and embankments
I saw some gobblers in a distant field as I traveled to the site. Later, I would see a flock of young turkeys. I hastily tried to get a photo or two, but the speed of the birds caused for some blurred pics.
The morning was comfortable in regards to the temperature. Mid-morning found a sharp rise in the heat, and humidity.
Buffalo Creek flows across more than half of Armstrong County before emerging into the Allegheny River at Freeport, Pennsylvania. The stream is a beauty of a waterways. Much of the stream is stocked annually with trout. This time of the year trout are few in numbers. However, carp can be viewed in places. I have crept along the shoreline to catch them. they average around 15 to 20 inches. 
I saw a couple of deer walking across the creek at two different places.
This morning I was going to visit my sister. I allowed extra time to walk in, and around 
Redmill Creek near Sunnyside, Pennsylvania. This stream is, also, a beautiful waterway that flows into Cowanshannock Creek. However, compared to buffalo creek this water source is much smaller in, both, depth and width. 
I saw three deer along the bottomland brush, as I looked for a few photo opportunities. There are big sycamore trees here, and there. The size usually makes for interesting stream photos.

Beautful photos as always!! I and a few ladyfriends (younger than me) have walked parts of the Butler Freeport trail and our favorite section is the Monroe section heading towards Laneville/Freeport; We usually stop just past the section under the Route 28 bridge and the kiosk about Massey Harbison, bur we love the old stone bridge you can see a short ways out after you start; New Year’s day one friend and I hiked part of the one near the Derailer Bike shop and cafe; Glad to see you keep on going even when you have an injury or aching bones (that sometimes slows me down a hair but it’s always best to keep on walking, just carefully and enjoying nature) I have driven and walked around the Buffalo creek area up near Yellow Dog and Worthington also. Love the farmfields up there for birds and just the views; I’ll keep checking out all your work now that I’ve found it–thank you!!
Thanks so much! I know the Massa Harbison story well! Great history!
