Bon Secours Wildlife


Of course we had to hike through the refuge.  There were a lot of gorgeous butterflies and LOADS of very fast lizards.


The plant life looks like dinosaurs could be coming along at any time.
 

The biggest surprise to me was the Reindeer Moss.  Reindeer eat this up north.  I called it fluffy moss.  It’s not really moss but lichen.  Supposedly it’s edible (if you’re desperate) and is even used in making an alcohol called Aquavit which is popular in Scandinavian.  To me it just looks magical!
