Chattahoochee Nature Center in July

It was getting typical Atlanta, Georgia, hot near the end of the kids' time with me. We made a morning trip to the Chattahoochee Nature Center to see the birds of prey and some of the other animals, like this beaver. Funny thing was the beaver was making his way to hide in some overgrowth and we got to watch him.

All the birds were really active and these barred owls clacked their beaks at me. Now, this really offends me because I LOVE owls and this is a threat response. Awesome.

The Boo tries out a bat habitat.

This is a passionflower, but unlike it's name implies, it's actually used as a sedative tea when dried.
