The under story in Sapsucker Woods is particularly green right now. We had a great walk. |
We saw some trillium and R11 and our Special Guest had a lot of conversation over wildflowers. |
Heather and Barb (and J6)! |
I have to tell all of you how delightful it was to meet Barb along with her husband and two boys. We had a fabulous time walking through Sapsucker Woods and identifying bunches of birds and would you believe that as we were watching a chipmunk and a small toad, the chipmunk ate the toad? Just jumped out of a tree hole and grabbed it!
Barb had not been to a forest in our area so she learned some new things on Monday. I'm so excited she took the time to contact me and it was a privilege to have a chance to go on a nature walk with Barb!
Barb it was fantastic! Let's sit over lunch again sometime! This time I want to see some sequoias!

You lucky duck! Barb has been so helpful to me (via her blogs and emails). I am sure the nature walk with her was wonderful!

It was fun and I so very much wish we could have stayed and visited longer. It was great to meet you Heather and your children were such a delight. R11 and I have a lot in common and it was fun to discover wildflowers with such a careful observer.
I ended up adding three birds to my life list and two wildlfowers! Excellent day all around.
You come to the sequoias and I will take you on a hike and we will picnic under the big trees. You name the day.
:)
No way! That is so awesome!
And did Barb love our beautiful New York? I'm glad she had a properly nature-loving family to be her guides.

How wonderful... for all of you!
Oh what FUN!! Love you both!
Wow -- what fun!! I'm glad your families had a great time together. :-)
You're so lucky!! She's been such a help to me with homeschooling my two boys via her blog as well. Glad she was able to enjoy some nature in our New York! :-)
Oh wow! I'm so jealous. I've always wanted to take a nature walk with Barb. Wouldn't it be neat if she hosted nature weekend retreats for homeschool moms? Sigh... what a delight!
