A lush woodland swamp with a forest floor covered in 4 foot tall ostrich ferns as far a the eye can see.

Hahahaha, it is so that time of year!

Find the swamp log. #highlightsforkids #ostrichfern

There is a well-hidden frog in the leaf litter.

First one to find the frog gets a swamp video. (Video may or may not end up having anything to do with frogs.) #HighlightsForKids #Game #Frogs #Herps

probably boreal oakmoss, a species of lichen

Find the snow flea. #bugsky #highlightsforkids

Swampy woodlands with COUNTLESS plants.

Very fun counting game! How many plants are in this photo? #HighlightsForKids #swampcore
