Bird Sanctuary

Just over a week ago we had a family adventure to a bird sanctuary.  (It just so happened to be a day with free admission too - sweet)!  It was incredible - from trumpeter swans, geese and ducks, to beautiful game birds, birds of prey and owls.  Wow, we learned lots, had fun, and enjoyed a stroll in "warmer" weather at last (the 50s). ;-)



A goose nesting, the one standing was hissing to protect her.


Not the only bird standing on one leg, need to find out why...

Beautiful trees too.




Pleased with her pine cone find.

These ones were hissing at us, guarding their food.

Australian Black Swan (I had never seen one of these).

Bottoms up!

Beautiful, bright colors!!

Amazingly long feathers.

Found an ice cream shop on the way home.
