"… to be used for nature study and as a preserve for birds and other wildlife."- Carmen Hambleton Warner
It’s a Good Day…
…to be a snail!
…to be a spice bush flower…
…to be a toothwort bud…
…to be a blister beetle…
…to be a water drop on blue cohosh…
…to be a salamander egg mass…
…to be a trout lily leaf…
…to be a Glory-of-the-Snow flower…
…to be a gander goose waiting on your new family to hatch…
