Wildlife

Since time was on our side during our scenic drive, and since the road was mostly empty, we stopped a few times when we spotted some wildlife, too.

Jordan saw some turkeys, so we stopped on the road, and I was able to grab the camera, get out of the car, run up a little hill, and take a couple of pictures before they all ran -or flew- out of view. It was neat to see them fly a little bit!

Some beautiful birds


Here are some dwarf white oaks. The sign here explained that oaks don't usually grow in a dwarf variety, but the growth of these oaks was stunted by a series of icy weather and strong, cold winds. These trees were quite beautiful, I thought.
