This afternoon we finally got some sunshine, so we decided we would head over to Jackson Bottom Wetlands to see what we could see. We weren't able to go everywhere, unless we had hip- waders. We have had tooooo much rain, usually we love the rain but we feel like we are going to start growing moss and webbed feet :). Makenna is working on a speech/report about a wetland animal and we thought we might see some to get her excited about working on her report. We didn't see too much this trip, we saw alot of tree swallows, ducks, herons, and other pretty birds that wouldn't hold still to get their pictures taken, I think one of us (the youngest) was too noisy, imagine that. We did see an eagle pretty close but by the time I got the camera ready it was too far to get a good picture. After we were done exploring we got back in the van and I asked Makenna if she had thought of the animal she was going to choose and she said the skunk, so we were all pretty happy and relieved that we didn't come in contact with any skunks.
