wildlife at the refuge. march 2019.

3/30/2019

2 Comments

 

A nice sunny day after a streak of dreary ones, and my first thoughts after work are to get in a walk at the refuge on the Kenai Nature Trail. It's a great place to soak up some sunshine while looking for wildlife and enjoying a beautiful view of the mountains.

​Some of the snow has definitely melted since our last trip a couple of weeks ago, so we had a good mix of snow and bare ground, along with some standing water and mushy mud. I think it might be possible that spring could have officially arrived. 

On today's outing we had the opportunity to see a porcupine, a muskrat, a couple of ground squirrels chasing each other, along with plenty of ducks and geese. :)

Glad you liked it so much, Dana! I was super excited to see him and capture his picture! Yes, porcupine cards will be in the works -- thanks so much for your input on it. :)
