An afternoon in "Habitat"

We found this place just a town away from where we live -- I was amazed I'd not heard of it until recently. It's a really great preserve, spacious, lots of walking trails -- and with map labels like "Turtle Pond" and "Troll Bridge".

Troll Bridge was only silly, however -- just a plank over a shallow little dip. Would have to be a tiny troll hiding under it.

We liked the look of this bridge much better.



There were lots of critters to be seen, and it was an exceptionally nice day out.

This guy made an impressive amount of noise, too.

There were a lot of happy birds of all different sizes and colors. It was great to just stand still and watch for a few minutes and see who flew by.


I recommend the place.
