Our Iowa Wildlife Encounters (So Far)

Well, things are progressing and seem to be falling into place on our house. We're hoping to move in by the end of the week!!! Here are some pictures of the animals we've seen on our little walks around the river. There is also a lake out on the edge of town that we found while looking for the church house. A few days ago we took a trip there and walked around the smaller half of the lake. There were geese everywhere and lots of people fishing so Daren thinks he's found a spot that he can go to almost every evening for fishing. I told him that was okay, but I'd probably take some bread and feed the geese instead. Also here are some pictures of the cotton tails I was talking about earlier. They are everywhere, these ones were just in an empty lot by a parking lot. The place we're moving into has them all over so the first thing on my list to do is bunny proof the flower beds so I can start a garden. So stay tuned for more exciting wild life, with my husband I'm sure there will be deer and turkey on the agenda as soon as he can get an Iowa hunting license. I want to go walk around the river again so I can get pictures of the big bridge we crossed (and will be re-crossing to get pictures) and there were raccoon tracks in the mud so hopefully I'll get to see one. Also the school has a themed garden that changes the theme yearly, and this year is dinosaurs so when we finally get settled Daren said we could go walk through it too. Hope everyone is doing well, we miss you guys!!!
