A new beginning ~




It is a new beginning for us at Ebenezer Farm. We have lots of things to write about. Ebenezer Farm truly is a wonder-filled world! Just today we took the preschoolers out for a hike to the flood control reservoir, to see what we could see. It was a lovely warm Spring day - yay! We spent the whole day outside - except for the much needed rest hour. Here's the list of today's major finds: 3 huge blue herons which soared overhead and curved around landing onto stumps in the water; 2 handsome male mallards following one tired female; 1 kingfisher swooping down into the water to grab something out - a fish probably; a hawk (not sure what kind); 1 pileated woodpecker, frightened away by the crunching leaves under 5 preschooler's feet; one muskrat chiseled stick; one garter snake; a couple of redwinged blackbirds; many chickadees, crows and tufted titmice. Oh, it was a wonder-filled adventurous morning for us. Check back soon, there's something new everyday!
