Hello again and we are still sharing our Saturday with you! Today we'll tell you about our visit to the
Edith Moore Bird Sanctuary. Max was cooled off from his trip to Discovery Green Park and we ate a quick bite together, then it was off to a bummer of a stop (tell you about that disappointment later), then here! Max loves walking on trails and being nosey, (kinda like his Ma), so I knew he'd love it!
 |
| Me and my bridges |
 |
| Max was carefully guarding me to be sure to protect me from killer birds! |
 |
| Anyone know what kind of bird this is? |
 |
| Love all the trees! |
 |
| Don't worry Ma...Super Max here will protect you from this scary frog! |
 |
| Ok, I soooo suck..missed the BEST photo of all...well, should have been a video cuz I'd have one first place in a contest!! Max got brave and wandered into the brush just a little and all the sudden I hear him let out this LOUD (for Max), growl and jump STRAIGHT up like a FOOT in the air and flew past me so fast I let go of his leash...then when I saw what was soooo terrifying I was laughing hysterically, by myself, in the woods! A twig branch attached itself to Max's harness and scared the daylights out of him when it "followed him"! I am laughing now again just thinking about Max's face and reaction! |
 |
| We sat on a little bench here and regained poor little Max's composure :) with lots of petting and talking to calm him down from the crazed, maniac twig branch! |
 |
| I have no clue and WHAT kind of bird this is but there are LOTS of them and that seems how they all hang around but they were too fast to get a clear shot of...anyone know? We called them the bat birds! |
 |
| Better make sure no demon twig branches jump out and attack me! Ma's on her own!!! |
 |
| I'm wishing...I'm wishing....for the one I love.... (anyone know where that comes from?) |
 |
| Interesting trivia...Edith was born in 1884, Jesse was born in 1894 (craddle robber eh?:)), they divorced in 1957 (odd for those times I thought), and Edith died only 1 year after willing the home and 17.5 acres to the Houston Audubon Society and Jesse lived until the age of 99 as passed in 1993. |
 |
| This little pond was made around 1930! |
 |
| So peaceful here! |
 |
| Ma....why do we have to leave?! Come on Ma!!! Fine then...I'm not gonna talk to you the whole ride home!!! What? Treats in your pocket? Ok, let's go Ma...we are outta here! :) |
