Here Birdie Birdie

Mommy, Grandpa and I went out to Ladner this afternoon to visit the bird sanctuary. It was my first time there - ever.


The weather was perfect. It was sunny and warm but not too hot. The trails were shady in some spots and sunny in others. Grandpa was in charge of the map to make sure we didn't get lost.


We saw so many birds. Some I had seen before, like ducks and geese and there were others that Mommy and I had never seen before like this heron.


We did so many things in the two hours that we were there. I discovered what a bird blind is, I climbed a great big blue tower to see the view from the top, I looked for a beaver dam and I saw a little birdie building a nest. My favourite part was feeding the birds.


Here I am feeding some ducks. All the birds were pretty friendly. Not afraid of me at all. As soon as they saw my paper bag of bird seeds they'd come right over.



After almost two hours of walking I was pretty tired and I had to get Mommy to carry me back to the car. She put me up on her shoulders and I had a great view. I should have asked her to carry me sooner.


It was a really fun afternoon and I look forward to next time we go to the bird sanctuary.
