Dolphin Place Open Space

ANIMALS

Animals come in many sizes and forms.  Dolphin Place is but a small haven being surrounded an ever-growing suburbia, yet contains an amazing and educational population of warm fuzzies and creepy-crawlies.  We have been visited by whales and bear, have crows that watch the kingfishers, then attempt to catch fish themselves by diving the waters, to the annual salmon run.  But as a small native garden, the largest are but visitors, to be enjoyed as they migrate by .

​

For starters, animals can be basically grouped as follows: vertebrates and the wee ones.
