The Trek

Yesterday we took a trek through Turkey Run.  Turkey Run is fantastic.  Huge Rocks, gulches, canyons, trees, water, covered bridge. What's not to like?  We saw a few wild things:  6 turkey vultures sitting in a tree, a ground hog scurrying along the river, a bald eagle idling in a field, some red bellied woodpeckers eating at the feeders near the nature center. In the nature center, someone wrote on the wildlife whiteboard that they saw a pack of coyotes the day before.  I kept my eyes peeled for them but alas, I saw them not. Today is shoe shopping with #1 Son. Aside from the rancid weather, this staycation's been top notch.

We just got back from a trek out to Stillwater Marsh. The 6 Tundra Swans are still there. Lots of Buffleheads as well.

When you're driving toward Brown County, there's a right turn right after a binocular sign. That's how we find it. Your drive down that road, and then you take a right turn after awhile, and there's a viewing platform. Bring binoculars. So cool. We also saw a bunch of ringneck ducks.

A red tailed hawk welcomed me back to btown yesterday. I'm taking that as a good sign. And I need to get a google account so I can post on Ros's blog. I type something and then get to publish and remember I have no way to do it. Drats. Double Drats. Love the post, Ros.
