Part of our trip included a visit to the Western North Carolina Nature Center. We could use our zoo membership for free admission and the girls love animals so it was the perfect choice for our excursion. The rain held off long enough for us to see what there was to see. Some of the favorites included the river otters, black bear, fox, and the butterfly house. Savanna was mesmerized by the butterflies crawling on her but Sadie was not OK with it any closer than her hand. I think it is a lovely butterfly bowtie she is wearing. We also met Artie the owl. How fascinating to learn about and see so closely this magnificent bird! An interesting fact about him is that his wings are shaped in a way that he doesn't make a sound when he swoops down to capture his prey. What a beautiful creature!
