To welcome summer’s arrival, the kids and I took a nature walk around our property to see what we could find. We started off down the lane Level B Service Road} that leads from our small acreage and is usually torn to shreds by inconsiderate teenagers who like to go mudding in their trucks. I love this road, though. I have a thing for tree lined lanes. I know, I’m weird…
Here are some of the things we found.
Ditch Lilly
Black raspberries ~ I was hoping to find a bowl full, but did not. I love the picture of Sara screaming “All gone!” translation ~ “Get me more, now!”
Ben found a nest of baby birds and was excited when Moma bird arrived back to her nest and squawked at the kids for looking at her babies!
I found a cicada on my Black Aztec corn. Ben was enthralled and wanted to keep it as a pet. YUCK!
It was a fun way to spend an hour and is one way our kids learn a lot about the world around us. I love that we are able to spend leisurely time doing things like that.
Happy Friday!
