Weekend at Berni's

We were finally able to get out to do a little camping this weekend at an acreage belonging to some dear friends of ours. A short ramble to the bank of the River the girls wasted no time and got straight to playing, exploring bridges and working on the their silver level naturalist club badge.
First thing Saturday morning as we were preparing for breakfast grace heard this little guy!

A white throated sparrow


Throughout the day three more birds were added to the girl's bird ID list for both Scouts and the Young Naturalists Club

Great Blue Heron

Red winged Blackbird

 

Barn Swallows

Their weekend at Berni's was not all work the Girls took time to sit by the Fire and roast marshmallows.

What a fantastic kick off for the summer! The girls are looking forward to many more out door moments. Who know where the summer will lead.
