Wildlife!

Today I took Bella to the Wildlife Center at Georgia Southern, formerly the Raptor Center.  They were having some cool programs and I thought she would enjoy it.

We started off a little different than usual, we went to Habitat for Humanity first and looked around.  Seemed to be obsessed with baskets for some reason.  Every basket we passed, she said 'this will be my Easter basket!'.
Then we went to Lowes, Kathryn and James were with us, but we broke off by ourselves to get her some garden gloves.  Kathryn has been trying her hand at a raised garden recently and Bella wanted her own gloves to help out with.  We found some Tinkerbell ones.

On to the Wildlife Center!
As usual, Bella wanted me to take a pic of her while she poses. She is a bacon wrapped Ham!  But she is cute.

There are so many things to see at this place, they have quite a few animals.  Her favorite one is the Tortoise setup.  She kept trying to catch this little one and hold it, I had to reach under a log to get it, but she loved it.

We went outside, I thought she would be more fascinated by the birds than she was.  She wasn't terribly impressed. She did however like the Barred Owl house. 

We sat down and watched the ducks for a bit.

This past few years the center has put in a very impressive setup, even including a playground, and camping area!  We will have to take advantage of the camping someday.

We saw the reptile show that they put on, this is a Burmese Python, that is 14' long, it's the same type that is over running Florida right now. 

I took her to the gift shop and told her she can get something, she looked at a few things, then settled on a magnifying glass.

Bella's sandals met their ultimate demise this warm March day.  So I took her to buy some sandals, let her pick them out, another quick decision.

A Pretty Good Day!
