Bitter Lake National Wildlife Refuge: Sierra's First Outdoor Adventure

This afternoon Noelle, Sierra, Mom, Dad and myself packed up the diaper bag and headed up to Roswell. We had two things on the agenda: lunch and Big D's Downtown Dive and birding at Bitter Lake. Unfortunately Big D's was closed due to the Eastern New Mexico State Fair. Instead we ate at Red Brick Pizza.

After lunch we headed over to the refuge and saw some of the first sandhill cranes of the season.

We drove the entire wildlife loop and even looked for some birds at the blind.
