On Monday, while exploring with kindergartners in Smith Conservancy we found a beautiful (one of the most beautiful critters in the world) baby tree frog, under bark on an old log on the ground--we left it there.
Today while walking through Webb Forest I say ducks in trees! I didn't know ducks were perchers--I couldn't see them well but I am guessing they were Wood ducks--they seemed to be backlit so I couldn't make out the coloring very well. On the ground side of things there were wonderfully clear raccoon tracks because we had just had a very wet snow and then a freeze last night. The tracks were made before the freeze. Finally, I scared two geese. I checked their tracks and they were amazingly like turkey tracks. It was hard to see the web marks or other distinctions.
