Safari

This morning, we took a nature walk at the park.  We looked for leaves and pretended we were on a safari.  We drove around the “game park” looking for animals.  We discovered deer, turkey, flying geese, chipmunks and lots of squirrels.

Holly

HollyThe neighbors own two barn cats.  Often, Holly will come over to visit.  Often, while the kids are outside, Holly will walk through the back yard to see what they are doing.

She is not super friendly, but she likes to be around the children.  If they don’t try to hug her too much or pick her up, she will hang around the backyard watching them.

 

 

Box Turtle

Box turtleWhile we were exploring, we discovered an Eastern Box Turtle along the side of a parking lot.  They are endangered in Indiana, and we have not seen one in the wild in years.  We admired this one for awhile before moving it to a safer place near the woods we had been walking in.
