Our day trip to Dauset Trails

The kids have the week off from school for Thanksgiving - and since we aren't going anywhere I decided to take the kids to Dauset Trails. It is such a fun place to go - lots of animals for the kids to see and it's a nice little walk in nature. We invited our friends, the Blakes, to go with us. First we had a picnic, and then off we went to enjoy nature! Kaylee kept track of all of the animals we saw: horses, cows, birds, goats, dogs, deer, squirrels, red tailed hawk, bobcat, wild turkey, bison, opossum, red fox, barn owl, gray fox, raccoon, ducks, grasshoppers, turtles, a spider, butterfly, minnows, cougar, great horned owl, osprey, big black bear, screech owl, bald eagle, beaver, otters, pigs, chickens and roosters!
All of the kids together before the hike!
We found this turtle on a log - so all of the kids took turns touching it.



The fall colors were gorgeous!
