Event Update: SOS 1

So, today we did our first official Six on Saturday (SOS) walk. It was very hot, but very awesome too. If you didn't choose to GOYB, here is what you missed. As usual, click photos to embiggen:

This was a really pale hawk. Not entirely sure what kind. He flew out in front of us when we first started out.
 This guy must be a local, I think I got a picture of him the last time we walked A1A too.
 A neat tree top.
 This was scary. We were just innocently walking along when suddenly Heather grew as big as palm tree! Here she is doing her patented Attack of the 50 Foot Woman pose.
 These aren't sea beans, but I have already forgotten what Heather said they are called.
 Heather returned to normal size by the turn around point, 3 miles.
 Your fearless leader, at 3 mile point.
It was very very hot, so we didn't see a huge number of critters, but on the way back, we found some bob cat poop, so we know the critters are out there!

Hope you can join us on our next outing.

Remember, you can only watch life go by from your couch, you can make life happen by getting off your butt!
