Butterfly drinking nectar
The first thing we spotted was the butterfly right outside the nature center drinking nectar from a daisy, masha Allah.
Next, we located wild blueberries which are food for birds, deer and other animals. Deer also munch on azalea shoots, insha Allah.

Azalea shoots
A hole in a tree serves as shelter to birds, squirrels, and bats, masha Allah. Lily pads provide cover for fish, frogs, insects, and other creatures.
The finale of the hike was a lovely waterfall which serves as a source of water for all animals, subhannallah.
