Wildlife at the Bluff Hut

Our little "Wild Things" love to observe, find and catch other wild-things of the outdoor variety. At the Bluff Hut, there are countless opportunities for the kids to do just this. During our visit, we took the girls fishing at a neighbor's large pond. It was here that McKenna made her first-ever, all-by-herself catch. Below is the fine "little" bass she proudly reeled in.





Another catch they made was that of a tiny frog. I had been after these little suckers all week, trying to snag one for the girls to look at. Every time, they eluded me, letting me know of their nearby presence only through a croak and a small ker-plop as they leapt into the safety of the pond. But not McKenna! Without even trying, she came across this cute little guy and handily snatched him up for us to observe. See for yourself.
