Delaney and I have been meeting her classmates for hikes every Friday morning to keep in touch. We've been exploring the State Parks in the area. Let me tell you they are gorgeous, but especially so when you see them through the eyes of a 5 year old. Here are some photos from the Nisqually Wildlife Refuge. I have this annoying need to photograph the trail map before I head out, but I couldn't find one for this hike. Needless to say, it wasn't needed for this hike. Almost the whole trek was on a gorgeous boardwalk like this one.

We saw a fair amount of wildlife on this hike. |

The sides of this barn have many birds nests that have been ripped open by owls swooping by to steal eggs. |

Our guide set up a spotting scope for the kids to see a bald eagle resting in a tree along the river. |

Slightly aggressive Grey Squirrels. This one is devouring something he stole from a picnic table. |
I highly recommend this hike, but pack in some water and snacks. Your little one will work up an appetite. To see actual images of the refuge just follow the link above.
