While en route to a football game this fall I decided to check out Squaw Creek National Wildlife Refuge in Northwest Missouri. I became somewhat confused when trying to get directions on the internet because the name Loess Bluffs National Wildlife Refuge kept popping up. After some research I discovered the powers that be thought the name Squaw was offensive and changed it to Loess Bluff in 2017. Are we the only country that changes its history to suit the times? Just wondered.

Come to find out I was a little early to get any good shots of waterfowl. I only saw a few ducks. A wildlife official told me that spring is the best time to go there. I plan on going back. It wasn't a complete waste of time because I ran across some tree tunnels while driving around. Hope you enjoy this photo.
