wetlands at dusk

one thing i love about where we live is the proximity to the wetlands. since we have joined our homeschool group in september we have been taking advantage of this natural habitat that is so close to home. we have gone on several walks through the wetlands during the mornings and early afternoons, but never one at dusk. so, the other day when our plans to go to the LA zoo with my sister and her kiddo's got foiled we headed back home (after eating lunch here) to ride bikes down at the beach. but, that plan got foiled too. so, we got back in the car with a couple of disappointed kiddo's who just wanted to go home, but when we passed the parking lot to the wetlands we decided to turn in to go for a quick walk. i'm so glad we did because it was so much fun. it was almost like the wetlands comes alive in the evening. we saw 6 blue herons, lots of jack rabbits feeding in the fields, and heard lots of noises in the bushes. here's some of the pics from our adventure...
