Nick the Naturalist told us the kinds of critters we could expect to find and provided nets for catching and a bucket for observing our creatures.
Under the rocks is one of the best places to look.
Justin checks out what the group had caught so far.
All sorts of things live in creeks, but the most exciting to find was the crayfish.
Here's another one that we decided to leave in peace:
Justin really enjoyed exploring the water...
...and discovering what was in it.
Tim and Justin pointing things out to each other:
Smiling at the camera...
...and at Grandmother up on the bank of the creek:
When we were done, most of the critters got dumped back in the creek, but Nick took a few of them for the creek aquarium he was creating for the nature center.

That reminds me of my limnology class at St. Mary's, kids, they are so advanced these days!!
Hello Jen, I'm Ellen, I work with Mimi. I sure do enjoy watching Justin growing up. You and Tim are great parents. You have a very beautiful family. May God continue to bless and keep all of you in His tender care.
God bless
