What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn moreAva loves how different everything is! You could be looking at 20 leaves from the same tree and they’d all look different and beautiful! She loves observing animals in their habitats as well! She loves how bright everything is; the flowers, the sky, the insects and birds, the grass, everything! She always finds something new to love by the end of our trail hikes and has to know everything about it! She loves everything about nature! She also LOVES her rock collection! She has EVERY color!
Ava’s favorite animal is the panda bear! She loves how they tuck into balls and roll around! And she loves how they eat bamboo. She loves that they’re black and white and fluffy! She also loves the cute noises they make while they’re playing. She loves how they climb to get bamboo with their claws! She loves how the mommies take care of the tiny babies and how sweet they are.
Ava’s favorite outdoor activity is kayaking! She LOVES sitting in the kayaks with mom and dad while gliding her hands in the water or grabbing floating sticks! She also notices every animal near us and all the plants underwater! She watches butterflies and dragonflies boop us while we row and tries to get them to land on her fingers. Her favorite part is when we find a little beach to stop at and she can watch the tiny fish swim around in the sun! Or quietly watch a heron hunting for its food!
