Another Walk at the River

by Jimmie Lanley on May 5, 2009

Highlights from our Sunday afternoon at the river.

We found a perfect shrimp exoskeleton on a rock.

We love our Chaco sandals! You can wade right into the water with them but still have firm footing. When you get out of the water, the straps dry quickly.

An eel was nosing around the bank. I almost stepped on it! (If you click on the photo, you’ll go to Flickr where the photo has some explanatory notes to help you see it better.)

And a flock of ducks that gave Sprite a lot of amusement, chasing and catching.

Sprite did some journaling in her nature notebook when we returned home. It’s so good to be back into nature study again. The river is such a fun place to explore!
