Redmond Watershed shows its colors!

Yesenia found a tree frog on our hike today! After making bear bell necklaces we took our exploring tools out into the forest to see what we could find.  We measured mushrooms, examined the moss on nurse logs and tried to catch a tree frog.  Our hike was longer than usual and the sun played peek a boo the whole morning. 
The forest at the watershed is a deciduous forest-very few pine trees-and as such the tree cover was very different from other forests we have hiked in. 
We listened for special birds and saw lots of trees that had been pecked at by woodpeckers.  There was lots to see!
