Nature Walk

One of the favorite parts of visiting the aquarium is taking a walk on their nature trails. We always see tons of wildlife and even catch a few toads and frogs. The kids enjoy being down near the swamp and quietly watching for critters.  We found lots of mosquitos in addition to the other fun stuff.

This was right before she realized she had lost the momentum to get her feet back on the branch.  Brave girl didn't panic and did manage to swing herself back into the tree trunk. 

Hank is freakishly good at spotting an catching critters. Toads are much easier to catch than those seriously athletic leopard frogs. Those things can jump so far!!
