Ridgefield Wildlife Refuge - May 24, 2020

Today our adventure was inspired by seeing a friends pictures from the Ridgefield Wildlife Refuge.  This is one of the stops on the Scenic Route, but we didn't stop here before.  At the entrance to the refuge there is a fenced dog park, which could be fun to bring Frankie to another time.  Only the drive-through portion of the refuge is open, but when the trails open, the girls and I want to come back and explore there!

Since I was driving, Zoey was the designated photographer today.  This was perfect since she needed to take some outdoor photography to complete her Outdoor Art badge our troop worked on at our last virtual meeting.  

The drive itself takes about 30 minutes and offers lots of great photo ops!  Signs along the way remind you to stay in your car.  There are lots of areas to pull off for a "closer" view.  We saw turtle, frogs, dragonflies, various birds and ducks, and some deer!  Definitely a fun little adventure that we'll do again in the future.
