I am linking up with Skywatch Friday and Good Fences
I hope you can join in on the fun and share your fence scenes and pretty skies.
These are some images from our walk on the local NCR bike trail. I was able to include some fences for Tex's Good Fence meme.
Scenes from along the NCR trail during our walk. As you can seen by my mosaic images our world is mostly brown now with some green grass still showing.
Lately these cute Golden-crowned Kinglets are being seen and heard along the trails and during our walks. They are quick movers like the warblers. I also heard some Winter Wrens but they disappeared into the brush along the river.
A sunset from our backyard.
This moon shot was taken on Jan 3rd.
My view of the moon setting from my deck.
A sliver of a moon taken on Jan 5th. As always thank you for stopping by and for the nice comments.

Thanks to Theresa @ The Run*A*Round Ranch for hosting Good Fences this past year it has been fun looking for fences for my post. Also, thank you to Sylvia, Yogi and Sandy for doing such a great job at hosting Skywatch Friday. I wish everyone a happy day and weekend ahead..
I almost thought from your first photo that you had been for a walk along the river near my home, Eileen'! It looks so similar here in N. Ireland with winter brown all around. Those are sweet little birds with their golden crowns!
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy seeing the photos of the moon that you take, as they are so clear!
Have a great day!
Superb shots!
ReplyDeleteHappy day Eileen

ReplyDeleteThe sunset from your backyard looks great too.
Happy Thursday Wishes.

ReplyDeletewonderful snaps as always! you always inspire me to get out and take a walk! have a great day :)
ReplyDeleteHi Eileen, love the split rail along the trail and the birds are so special. They have such a pretty marking with the yellow on their head. Red sky at night is beautiful. I always enjoy your moon shots too. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteThese are so beautiful views !!
ReplyDeleteGreetings
lovely soft sky. great pine tree. and loved the fence!
ReplyDeleteWonderful images....as always. I 'sound' like a broken record, I know...but it's true.
ReplyDeleteThe moon, the soft, delicate hues of the sky from your deck...and of course the birds.
Love that first sky shot through the trees. Purdy
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping that the full moon on the 23rd will be good for photographing. We'll be on the road that evening, so a different perspective will be nice. Love the hazy sunset picture.
ReplyDeleteYou have one of the funnest backyards of anyone I know of!
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos !
ReplyDeletea walk sounds nice, i was outside yesterday and about froze to pieces. it is just so so cold. i need a heavier coat & this one is my Cabela's heavy heavy winter coat. brr!! love your views. cute birdie. need to go check his yellow cap out again. i am wondering if i have seen on in person before? ( :
ReplyDeleteGreat trail and fences along it. I've never heard of a Kinglet. Thanks for sharing. I've just downloaded similar moon shots from 3 January onto my mother-in-law's digital photo frame. Along with photos of the dogs enjoying the after-rain on the golf course earlier this week. I don't think I'll be able to photograph the next waxing of the moon tonight as the clouds are building up for more rain. I will have to post the ones I had on FB two days ago. Hope you're having a great day. Jo
ReplyDeleteLovely Eileen, always fun to see your photos. Happy day to you.
ReplyDeleteHi Eileen,
ReplyDeletemarvelous photos of your walk and stunning moon shots.
Best regards, Synnöve
Wonderful photos of your very inviting walk ~ fantastic moon shots!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a joyful weekend ~ ^_^
Beautiful shots of the moon Eileen. I love to see the pot marks in the surface and imagine what it must have been like to walk on there and look back at the Earth. Amazing! xx
ReplyDeleteHi Eileen
ReplyDeleteNice set of photos. I'm surprised you still have no snow???
We FINALLY got a bunch and hubby and I are enjoying a lot of time on the skis enjoying the quiet and beauty of winter.
Have a wonderful weekend
I seriously would love to see some larger versions of the photos in that first collage. So many of them really appeal to me.
ReplyDeleteI forgot to say I love that shot from your back yard! And terrific moon shots.
ReplyDeleteIt must be beautiful place in spring, when all is green.
ReplyDeletei really adore the second image, the gorgeous blue sky framed with trees, so pretty!!
ReplyDeletei have never seen the kinglet. what a cute little bird, they are shaped and look a bit like the warbler!!
your moon images are always the best!!!
Your wonderful walks seem endless ... everywhere you go, and you do go to many places, it is beautiful. And, isn't it wonderful that you are such a good photographer so you can share it all with those of us in the middle west who's scenery reeks of corn and bean fields. Always enjoy my visits to your blog, Eileen.
ReplyDeleteAndrea @ From the Sol
Oh yes, the Golden-crowned Kinglet, it reminds me of our Firecrest, beautiful images. And I do love that moon.
ReplyDeletehaving a hard time choosing a favorite. love the trees against the sky but also love that creek and trees. beautiful shots, all of these
ReplyDeleteGreat moon shots! And kinglets (similiar) we saw too on our birdwatching last saturday, they are so lovely.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice ztime
Beautiful walk and scenery you had. I love how you captured the moon.
ReplyDeleteVery nice winter fence scenes, at least the grass is still green. I like that little bird with the yellow markings.
ReplyDeleteA series series Eileen, and I always your moon captures!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous series and lovely views, Eileen! I appreciate your photos so much.
ReplyDeleteThose kinglets sure are pretty. I finally got a decent photo of a warbler that is coming to our feeder with the goldfinches this week. Love your moon photos and the beautiful sky! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots Eileen especially of the moon ... it's like a big crescent of lumpy cheese. Hoping your week-end goes well with lots of photo opportunities
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great trail to walk on. I like the rustic fences!
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your posts, Eileen!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful place! Love the sky shots!
ReplyDeletelovely little bird and I like that sturdy fence :)
ReplyDeleteThat's another photo (of the path) that makes me want to put on my running shoes and go for a long leisurely jog, breathing in fresh air and enjoying the surrounds.
ReplyDeleteThose trails look inviting. Beautiful views and moon shot.
ReplyDeleteYou so enjoy your photography! I do, too!
ReplyDeleteThese are all beautiful captures, but the one taken from the trail where you are looking up at the blue sky through the trees is heavenly. I really love it.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful sequence of images! Stunning... your sunset!!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd once again I loved the moon shots!
Have a great weekend, Eileen!
Kisses
Ana
Daang you take such nice shots Eileen!

ReplyDeleteThe moon has really been pretty the last few nights, and I just watched it set behind the mountains this evening. ANd I love your fences, they really do make the walk even more scenic and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your moon shots, and these are excellent! Have a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteI love the fences in your mosaic, Eileen, and the sunset in the backyard is beautiful too. Such wonderful colours.

ReplyDeleteWhat glorious moon shots.
ReplyDeleteHi Eileen, I am in love with your moon shots! Great pics.
ReplyDeletebeautiful pics !!! happy weekend :-)
ReplyDeleteThe moon shots are fabulous! It looks so warm where you are. Is that the norm for this time of year? When I went out today it was very warm here too and the buds are coming out. That often happens but then it will get cold again. Enjoy your weekend, Eileen. xx
ReplyDeleteBelas fotografias.
ReplyDeleteGostei.
Um abraço e bom fim de semana.
your Kinglets are so like our Goldcrest birds. Loely moon shots.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful captures!!
ReplyDeleteLittle bits of green, blue skies, birds, not too terrible a winter yet ... Hope it doesn't get much worse for you. Lots of rain in Florida this season.
ReplyDeleteThat must have been a wonderful walk, I think. I specially like the collage and the first shot of the moon. Thanks for sharing and enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteLove these. I keep trying to shoot the moon but not much luck. I have much to learn about photography.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Eillen,
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous photos and oh the sunset from your backyard is majestic!
Have a really great weekend!

So much beauty in nature that most of us just breeze past without notice. You have an eye for composing it beautifully and making us aware that it is there, all around us, free to enjoy!
