Approximately two weeks ago taking a walk along a portion of the Capital Trail in the area of the Greensprings Interpretive trail, I a walk off the beaten path to discover some of the wildlife on a sunny but cold day. I saw a Great Blue Heron which on another day I caught in flight as well as several deer.
This past week I returned to the area of the beaver dams to find that kids/teens had been quite destructive in the area over the past week since I had first visited. The area in addition to this new destruction is littered with beer cans and plastic bottles. Parents if your kids are on the trail with rifles with these little pellets, please teach them how to be responsible and to respect nature.
My kids are on these trails as much as my husband and I am. They have been taught to respect the area, to respect nature and care for it. These are photos of what I found this past weekend .

| The most alarming thing are hundreds of these pellets which can easily kill birds and animals when eaten |
