A beautiful sunrise in the changing forest as song Birds serenade the morning light. Flitting Butterflies, a flying Squirrel plus hanging out at the breakfast club with a Chipmunk and a Chickadee.  It was a perfect late summer hike.

Don’t forget to get outside and play… the trails are waiting!

Mid summer the leaves are lush and birds are often hidden from view and butterflies are scarce.  It is a joy to spot a variety of winged beauties on our hike.  A Little Yellow (Sulphur Butterfly) is perch on a twig at the trail edge.  High above us a Mourning Dove sit on a bare branch and a molting red Summer Tanager sings a trilling tune.  Near the end of our hike we catch sight of a Blue Grosbeak catching a green caterpillar for breakfast.

Have a lovely day and get out and play!
