Journal Entry for Thursday, Mar 1st

Hiking in the Clark County Wetlands Park Today I visited the Clark County Wetlands Park with a friend that was visiting from out of state. Though the trees and plant life here are much more colorful later in the spring when they are in bloom, it was still a very nice hike. During our walk we observed a variety of wildlife including some turtles, a white egret, a hawk, coots, ducks, a huge roadrunner and nearly a half-dozen Desert Cottontail Rabbits. Unfortunately, the only thing I was able to photograph before they either flew off or ran away were a few coots and some turtles that were lazily sunning themselves on a rock, oblivious to all passersby. Laced with more than five miles of concrete and graveled secondary walking trails, one can spend upwards of three hours looking for wildlife photo opportunities.
