Wild Life

We've been incredibly busy around here recently, but we're still finding time for occasional bits of fun in our harried schedules.

Friday-before-last Almost three weeks back*, we headed to the New England Wildlife Center in South Weymouth for a tour of the facility and a visit with the animals. We went with our playgroup (and have been there before) and loved seeing all the animals.

Our first "wild" animal visitor (a temporary resident owned by a volunteer of the center)


Aiden loved the big bunny!


We stopped in to say hi to the resident owl who has "beautiful brown eyes but a broken wing," according to Aiden. (He spent the following week telling just about everyone he saw about the poor owl who is missing a wing.)


And chatting with one of the resident tortoises...


I did manage to make it into one shot after handing the camera to another mother while I wrangled Devin away from the turtle "pond." He tossed in a huge rock, and I was extremely grateful it didn't hit any of the turtles!


*You'll notice I started this post about a week ago but didn't finish. Yep. Busy.
