| One of many deer who posed for us at NW Trek. |
While the grand bipeds were visiting us, we took a day trip to NW Trek in Eatonville, WA. It was a beautiful day and we saw MANY animals up close. Here are just a few of the pictures of what we saw. May be more to follow. The scenery & land where NW Trek is located is beautiful. This is probably the first "chapter" WE had a great time. I took LOTS of pics. But sad to say we had to leave all the furkids home. Sorry Ernie,Sasha,Chica,Lucas & Dolly & the 4 pups. GG and Dad took GREAT care of them. Thanks to you both.

| Lunch time. Waiting. It was a long wait for this Grizzly. He had to rest up so he could search for the food. Whatever the reason, he was VERY intent and watchful or maybe he just liked that rock. |
 |
| Wolf. Very beautiful. Reminded me of my Sibes. |
 |
| My daughter in law D with K&K. According to the rings on this tree, it started growing in 1335!!! It was cut down in 1966. |
|
 |
| There were many Moose to see. Actually quite a few of all the many animals. We went on the tram tour which was very interesting and all the animals to be seen on that tour were herbivores. |
 |
| Mr. Bison was looking a bit shaggy. Still losing his winter coat. Don't think I'd like to mess with him. Check out the horns. |
 |
| This Great Horned Owl was injured so will be spending the rest of his life at NW Trek and helping the people there to educate the public. The birds, wolves, bears, coyotes, etc were on the walking trails we took. It was beautiful and we enjoyed it so much we went back to some 2 or 3 times. |
 |
| OOOH! How itchy is this?! Can't wait to get rid of this winter coat. |
 |
| Big Horn Rams |
 |
| Leaf shadow on rock. Looked like it was "painted". |
 |
| Bald Eagle. One of many birds types of birds that are kept due to injury and can no longer function in the wild. |
 |
| Tree showing years on some of the rings. |
 |
| Taking time to smell the flowers...... |
 |
| Lynx. This is the first time I had ever heard their sound. It was eerie. It sounded kind of like a mix of a "meow" & a "bark" |
We have missed you so now that we are back we will be visiting you all again and commenting. Thanks for visiting us. Mom Barb
