What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn moreI love watching how nature changes. In the morning, I see different creatures than what I see at night. And the animals behave differently based on the weather too! I love that I see something new every time I'm watching. Today, I saw a kingfisher fly right by me. I loved it!
My favorite animal is a hedgehog. I have loved everything about hedgehogs for as long as I remember, even when I was a baby. I like their hedgie spikes and how those spikes protect them. I like that they eat grubs and create hedgie holes too. My friends and I like to pretend we live in hedgie world where we try to protect all hedgehogs.
I love being outside and exploring. I walk with my dad in the woods, and we've seen deer, foxes, turtles, bunnies, and beavers. I love listening to birds and trying to identify trees too!
