Beach and Birds

We spent another day on the beach today but the weather hasn't been the best. We've been able to go out in the morning but with storms and rain quickly developing around lunch we've had to pack it back in. But the girls are still having a lot of fun. We even went to a Wildlife Show tonight that the island was hosting. Belle got to see a real owl tonight and was impressed for about 1 minute. Dang 2 year olds! It was pretty cool to hear about the many facts on the animals of the island but with two busy children it was hard to see all the animals in action. But, I did manage to snap a few pictures. Tomorrow is the big fourth of July events. We are looking forward to hopefully having some good weather so we can participate in the annual bike parade and fireworks.

 Look at how much fun my girls are having at the wildlife show....geesh.

Of course Allie-Ann had a question about who-knows-what mid-way through the show. 

 Allie-Ann laughing, Belle fussing....that's the way it goes. 

 This owl was so beautiful and you would think he would weigh a lot but only 4 pounds!

 The presenter had perches set up throughout the audience and had the birds fly around to them. It was pretty cool!

 The girls taking a break from sitting. Do I have the only children who have a hard time sitting for over 5 minutes....I believe not, right. 

 This was a neat part of the show. The animal keepers find sick or injured birds and they rehabilitate them until they are ready to be set back into the wild. They did this during the show with this little barred owl. 

 Setting him free for the first time.
