A Visit to Elkhorn Slough

We  went on the South Marsh Loop Trail, and we saw three Western Grebes, seven Horned Grebes, and a lot of Marsh Wrens.  I walked three miles, and boy was I tired!

In three weeks I will be going back to explore the Five Fingers Loop.

The Giant Maple Leaf

 

    We found this giant Maple leaf in Toro Park (Salinas, California).  I hiked for two hours on January 10, 2009. 

 

    I saw a beautiful hawk,  two vultures, four California Quail, and lots of small birds.

    We were tired, especially  me!  Then we found a water fountain.  I love water!

My Dog

Pirsig

 

 

 

     He is the best dog in the world.  His dad’s name is Jet Black Jake.   Jake was born on September 3, 1999.  His grandparents on his father’s side are “Just Add Water” and “Herm’s Misty Morning Jet”. 

    Pirsig’s mother is “My Buddy Cocoa”.  Her parents are Diamond R. Mocha Madness and Buddy.

      Pirsig was born on October 3, 2003, fourteen months after I was born.  We picked him up in January of 2004.

     Pirsig and I play tag, and we climb in our tree house.  I throw a ball out of the tree house window and he gets the ball.  He always returns the balls, and he also likes to eat apples and fruit off of the strawberry tree.

 

Big Red Polka Dotty Mushrooms

 

(Amanita Muscaria commonly known as the fly amanita)

These mushrooms are poisonous so don’t eat them.  I found these in Eureka, California.

Snail in the Garden

This snail was found in my backyard.  This is a garden snail.  I have three pet garden snails.  This is one of  them. Their names are Leaves, Eat, and Crack.
