Fireworks

in Fitch Bay for St. Jean Baptist celebrations

Deer in the Grass

While I was watching birds, I had a feeling I was being watched. I was right!

Grey Cat Bird

Until recently I had not seen a cat bird. While walking in my usual haunts, I was sure I could hear a cat in the bushes. I looked all around and did not see any cat, but found this very grey bird sitting on the post. It was in full "meow" mode.

Mother Wood Duck and little ones

Mother is nature is very good at camouflage....these ducks were not very visable at first

Snaping Turtle

on her way to lay some eggs. She looks rather prehistoric does's she. She could use a good moisturizer.

Let's call him Harry

He is a young Hairy Woodpecker, learning how to fend for himself, being taught by Dad. Dad is perched on the suet feeder, going to show little one how to eat by himself. Harry is very nervous, nearly falls of the swinging feeder. Dad is on the way to the rescue, brings food. "Now when I touch your beak, open it! There, by George, I think you've got it!"

Leap Frog

I interrupted this fellow in his game of Leap Frog, at the Katevale Marsh, over the weekend.

While walking along a stony beach....

I found a small stone with the number 5 written on it. We are all counting our pennies, I guess Mother Nature is counting her pebbles

don't forget to click on the photos...

If you have high speed that is...... clicking on the photo brings it up to its full resolution and gives a better view.

I rescued a butterfly today from inside a house.....

this is what I got in return

more bloom

The Azalea blooming outside, by the deck is stunning today.

Welcome June...

Let's leave the birds alone for a few days..... there is wild honeysuckle growing in the Cherry River Marsh, both pink and white.
