A lovely, sunny, yet cold and windy, winter day called for a walk in a new area. This beautiful bird sanctuary, on the outskirts of Amherst, is a lovely area for a stroll in the woods. Although the paths were iced over, we could tell that the area was full of groomed trails weaving through the woods, leading to a pond or two. On our walk down we passed a couple carrying skates and we were later followed by two gentleman carrying hockey gear - obviously, it is a popular spot for skating. The biggest draw for us was the fact that the birds in the area will actually interact with people. Dylan has worked very hard all winter to have the chickadees at our house land on her, but to no avail. It only took about 3 minutes after arriving to have the first chickadee to land on her hands, and soon after on her head. She was in her glory.
