Local Wildlife Hike






We took a walk at a nearby lake to observe our local wildlife and take pictures of any plant life that interested us. We found a white bird with long legs wading in the shore that we had never seen before. An internet search revealed the bird to be a snowy egret. We also observed geese and rabbits.
We found an unusual plant that we had never seen before. It has bunches of small round balls that have spikes all over them. We tried hard, but still haven't been able to identify it. We hope to someday soon!

I just found your blog after looking at Sabrina's blog roll. Natalie doesn't have her blog list anymore so I kind of last track of her friend's blogs.
I think those green spiky pods are wild cucumbers. I am not positive but they look like it.
