Nature Walk & Art Time

After being cooped up on a rainy day, and while the parents had errands to run, my two oldest granddaughters and I went on a neighborhood explore.








We agreed that this Magnolia seed pod made for a wonderful watercolor painting (mine is above). "In the fall of the year after the flowers are long gone from a magnolia tree, the seed pods have an interesting surprise in store. Magnolia seed pods, which resemble exotic-looking cones, spread open to reveal bright red berries, and the tree comes to life with birds, squirrels, and other wildlife that relish these tasty fruits. Inside the berries, you'll find the magnolia seeds. And when conditions are just right, you may find a magnolia seedling growing under a magnolia tree."
There is something very magical about exploring through the eyes of children. This Nature walk was a treat and I love the memories we made.
