What a great day with classes from Conestoga PS and ThornwoodPS who joined me on virtual hikes. We followed deer tracks and were able to find the spot where a deer was sleeping and of course some scat! Peel District School Board #peelfam #dailydiscovery #enviroed #nature

Another great day spent virtually in the woods with classes from Huntington Ridge PS McBride and ThornwoodPS thank you everyone for all your wonderful wonderings! Ps no I don't live in the woods, but it would be nice! Peel District School Board #enviroed #outdoored #getoutside #peelfam

I love the contrast of colour dogwood has with snow. It's impossible not to notice this shrubby plant. I noticed: a vine climbing the trunk, and bits of fuzz in the buds #dailydiscovery #nature #getoutside #outdoored #enviroed #peelfam #naturejournal #NaturePhotography

I just downloaded the Birds of The World: The Cornell Lab Merlin Bird ID app to help me learn which birds I'll see on my walks this weekend for the #GreatBackyardBirdCount
