More Nature

We went to the Wildlife Glades Conservation and Audubon Center while in Missouri. There were several trails to hike and a little museum to go through. Again, my kids love anything that puts them in nature so this was a perfect place for them. Here they are in a field of Daisy's with their cousin Sophia.

Braeden trying not to get eaten alive by this gigantic clam.

These were skins of little critters that we might see along the trail. A skunk, several types of fox, a wolf, and a raccoon.....poor little critters.

This is how most of the trail was....covered in shade by gigantic trees. It was really pretty.

We found berries along the trail. These were unripened black berries.

A very hairy caterpillar.

The bat cave

This was the end of the trail. The only stinky thing about this trail was that it did not go in a complete round...so once you got to this bridge you had to turn around and go back the exact same way you came...lame.
