It was in the 50s today in Chicago–great weather for February–so we decided to pack up and take a little hike at the River Trail Nature Center in Northbrook. It has a short loop trail near the Des Plaines River as well as some cool local wildlife and a kids area inside the Nature Center itself. Mathias and Lillian had fun playing with our binoculars, and we also spotted a hairy woodpecker and several red-tailed hawks!
Lori put together a nature bingo for us all. Yes, I’m still looking for “poop.”
Next to a “vernal pool”–those binoculars were a hit!
