Yesterday, I went to the park with my friend. There were many dogs playing on the grass and some children flying kites. The trees were full of birds and the flowers were very colorful. I saw two foxes running near the river, and some sheep were grazing on the hill. My friends and I found several sticks and stones to play with. We also saw a few butterflies landing on the flowers. At the playground, there were swings and slides where the children were having fun.
