Great fun but also very eye opening experience. I did not know that such a unique place was so close and so accessible.It would be a great shame but even a greater crime to lose such a rescource, not only for the birds and animals but the future generations as well. There are so few places left for kids ( of all ages) to go and enjoy the outdoors4
