Nature Center

Inside the actual state park for Ten Killer Lake there is this nature center.  It was just a small place, but it contained the animals that were around in the park.  The had a lot of snakes and yes there were more poisonous ones than I wanted to know about.  And of course some spiders and turtles.  All things except the turtles that I don't want to come across in nature.  The kids got a good look at some of the things and touched some real animal fur.

The lady who worked there had a pigeon from Africa.  Now everyone has heard of cat ladies, well this was the first time I saw a bird lady.  This bird was in love with her and she seemed to think this was the best thing ever.  No matter how cool a bird is, it shouldn't replace a relationship with a human but whatever.  She seemed happy to sit in her chair and love all over this bird.  we all took pictures touching it...




Nice skunk on her head. 

 Took this picture in the dark room...I love Paisley's face.
 Diamond head which was shaking it's rattle the whole time we were there.
Just so cute couldn't resist.
