Saturday's Critters #159
I mentioned in a previous post that Circle B Bar Preserve is one of my favorite nearby birding spots. We are never disappointed with our walks there and the awesome wildlife sightings.
The Green Heron is a common bird we see on almost all our Circle B visits.
Just a neat view from the blind. The eagles nest across the way can be seen from this blind.
There are two Bald Eagle nests at the Circle B.
The Belted Kingfisher can usually be seen or heard around the preserve.
Another common bird seen at the Circle B is the Anhinga.
The turtles are seen on the sunny days.
Various butterflies are all around the preserve.
I hope you enjoyed this visit to the Circle B Bar Preserve, these images are from Nov 5th.
As always thanks for the visits and the nice comments. I also thank everyone who is linking up and sharing their critters.. Happy Saturday, have a great weekend!
I wish everyone a happy, healthy New Year! All the best for 2017!
Happy Saturday, it's time to share your critters and post. Any kind of critter will do, even a new or old post.. I appreciate everyone who is linking in with this week's critter party.

Good Morning Eileen. I'm wishing you a Happy New Year from England. Many thanks for your hard work in allowing everyone to join in your blog each Saturday - it is much appreciated.
You have some great species at Circle B. To see eagles and Belted Kingfishers regularly must be a real treat, not to mention such wonderful photo opportunities as the Green Heron.
All the best for 2017.
I love the green heron and the bald eagle! Great captures as always!

Wow Eileen,
I don't think I have see the green heron!! Such a pretty bird!! And wonderful shots of the other birds!! You must have a steady hand!!
I'm back! Now Marie-OR instead of Marie-AZ! :-) Love your green heron and all your gorgeous shots! I can't wait to get some bird photos. We saw a bald eagle and have noticed a woodpecker of some kind, a Scrub Jay, I think...and a bunch of robins! The robins were a shock! :-) It's 13 degrees here today!
I love this entire series, Eileen! Thank you so much for sharing, and Happy New Year to you! :)

Wonderful photo's again Eileen, my favourites are the green heron and butterfly.
Wishing you and yours a Happy and Healthy 2017
Enjoy this first week of our brand new year!
All the best Jan
Wow, that butterfly is amazing!! I'm thankful, Eileen, for the beautiful aspects of nature that you shared with all of us along this year. I learn a lot! about names of new birds, for instance, the green herons or Belted Kingfisher, who are not being native in here as far as I know. That's the beauty of blogging, it's all about learning and seeing new things.
Wishing you a very wonderful, prosperous, positive and happy New Year full of good health and good cheer, as well! Best regards and lots of joys in 2017! Happy New Year, once again! La multi ani in 2017! Alexa
The butterfly took my eye as well. Great images.
Happy New Year.
Diana

that we came from a lot of beautiful (natural) moments can enjoy and share.
Hi, Eileen...I hope the holidays were good for you. Sorry to be so late visiting. I love the Green Heron...very, very seldom see one here. Actually I had forgot I had seen one till I ran across a photo of one.
And the shot from the blind looks like I am looking at a painting almost. Hard to explain what I mean...but it gives me a good feeling to look at it.
Beautiful photos!
Happy New Year to you, Eileen!
Happy New Year...
Hi Eileen,
Beautiful series of photos.
I wish you a very happy and healthy 2017
Best regards, Irma
Hello Eileen
I wish you a healthy, happy, peaceful New Year!
Have a nice day
Crissi
Wow!Great view from behind the blind
Yes, I did enjoy the visit... And my first thought was 'what is the difference between a Cormorant and the Anhinga? Except maybe color? Not gonna see much next few days, since we are in blizzard conditions!! Never before!! Hmmm... Enjoy the nice, warm, sunny weather! Hugs!
Wonderful work, Eileen... and the last one... pure beauty!
I wish all the best for you and yours in 2017! And many, many, many great photos here, too... :-D
Kisses!
Ana
