Our neighbourhood is growing, new houses are going up everywhere. While overall I feel like is growing way to fast without any direction or intentional decision making (but that is a whole different RANT!). For discovery sake it has been interesting watching frames be put up, cement poured, siding appear, roofs put on, and paths put in.
There is one particular close area that we are excited about. It has a few ponds with a path surrounding it. We have seen Kildeer each time we have come here, which are extremely interesting birds. They nest on the ground and when a person or predator gets to close to the nest the adult Kildeer diverts their attention by pretending to have a broken wing and running away from the nest. We have seen Blue Herons, sunflowers growing and lots of gold finches. It is like a little oasis for us to explore after breakfast.
