    Kayla Thoughts


    We went on a nature hike. We took pictures of the beautiful nature at Washington-Lee Elementary. I enjoyed seeing all the nature that was here. I took pictures of ground ivy, raspberries, and a hovering fly. It was quite interesting. First, I took a picture of the ground ivy. It was purple and very pretty. It was easy to take a picture of this plant. There was a lot of them. Then, I took a picture of raspberries. Some of the leaves looked white. That is because when the leaves flip over, it means rain is coming. At the end, I saw a weird looking fly. It was hard to take a picture of the fly. I managed to take four pictures of the fly. We couldn’t figure out what the flies name was, so we called it “Mystery Fly”. I had fun today.
