Birds Of A Feather - By Kate Watson

We are so fortunate to live in a town that has a beautiful bird sanctuary for many species of birds to call home. 

The other morning we decided to adventure out on our Paiwen Stand Up Paddle (SUP) Boards and see the wildlife from a different view with the kids. Loaded with one kid on each board, and an extra kayak for our oldest, we made our way over to 'Bird Island'.
​
With the early summer floods in effect we were able to skim over the trail and see all sorts of animals from deer, turtles, huge carp and many birds like eagles, hawks and blue herons!

The beauty of being quiet on our Paddleboards allowed us to get super close to so many animals! Such a beautiful day and lovely little adventure!
