An owl means so many mysteries to me.

Hi Eileen,
Beautiful series of photographs of different birds.

Entering the Saturday's Critter fails Eileen, I tried it three times.

What a lovely series of photos. It looks like a great walk. I'd liked to have seen the Barred Owl and Limpkin sepecially!
Oh Eileen, you have had some remarkable times seeing the FL wildlife and these images are absolutely wonderful. You are so fortunate to have such great wildlife opportunities. Wave to West Palm Beach for me, that is where my youngest daughter and her husby live. Have a Happy weekend my friend~
Goodness me! blown away yet again by your beautiful critter shots.
Hi Eileen, beautiful photos as always. I learned something from you today that an Osprey is also known as a Fish Eagle. Thanks for hosting this meme. Greetings Jo
Wow, amazing photography, Eileen. Love all the critters.
Have a great weekend!
...yet another fabulous collection, Eileen. Thanks so much.
When you see a Barred Owl at the start of your walk you know it's going to be a great day!
What a lovely tour!
I still hope to see an owl when we hike...I say that every year! Love the different herons you see there too! Enjoy your weekend! Hugs, Diane
The owl must have worked a midnight shift. Great shots. Happy Day.

the barred owl - oooooooh, i just love him!!!!!!!!
White Peacock Butterfly was a treat . . .
But then, Saturdays Critters always is!
Love that first pic of the owl!
beautiful birds, all of them. I love the osprey best, they are fun to watch when fishing and very loud
Beautiful pics.
Have nice weekend.
You are our queen of birds!
Oh your photography of nature is always lovely ~ favorite this time is the Barn Owl and the Fish Eagle ~ thanks,
Wishing you a Happy Weekend ~ ^_^
Eileen, beautiful bird collection. Thanks for sharing.
Eileen, you find so many beautiful and fascinating things! I really enjoyed this nature tour, thank you so much for sharing. I hope you have a great weekend. :)
Good Morning Eileen. And thank you for sharing those fabulous shots today. The Anhinga is my favourite - beauty of a shot. Of course the Osprey, the Limpkin and those herons are pretty special too. Thanks for allowing me to join in today - always a pleasure.
The Green Heron is still my favourite.
Lots of great birds, but I like the green heron the best. And that gator gave me the shivers! I actually have a critter post so I get to link up with you today! Yay!! :)
Beautiful array of birds in your domain, love them altogether.
There are so many different Herons, all of them unique and pretty. I just love owls, they are fascinating, and some are so cute! You captured a very sweet side of the Red-shouldered Hawk. If we have any in our area, I've not had the pleasure of seeing one. I do, however, pay more attention to birds these days, in hopes of coming across some different ones. Love your photos, have a great weekend. P.S. Love the Fish Eagle! ♥
Thanks for the party! I always enjoying linking. I know sometimes mine don't always fit with the group like today. But if I caption it 'Viewing Nature' it fits! I loved this shot of my grand daughter and their dog when my DIL sent it and I knew it was going to be my post this week!
I hope you have a great party!
A sequence of prodigious images, full of incredible details, Eileen!
I just love all the images!
Great work!!!! Enjoy your Sunday!
A big kiss!
Ana
Paradise for sure!! I love everything about this post (and about Florida nature) -- even the alligator! You've already visited my site, but your note points out something I think I fail to thank you for often enough. You are amazing the way you take time to visit and really read our posts. I really appreciate that so much! Thank you for that as well as for hosting .
Wow, the Anhinga is so beautiful!Wishing you a great weekend!
Love the Barred Owl, that Anhinga and all of the other wonderful birds you are sharing...plus that great non-feathered critter! :-) Hope you are having a great week. I'm happy to be able to connect in today!
I have seen gators up close in south Georgia. This one looks sneaky!
You've a wealth of finds Eileen. I love some of the names "Limpkin" is gorgeous :D)
Beautiful butterfly too. Cheers now
Your photos are truly amazing, but my favorite is the Barred Owl! I heard our reside ones yesterday for the first time in weeks. I'm glad they're still around, and not in Florida! :-)
Lovely photos . Thanks for sharing , Have a good weekend !
terrific shots of the critters this week. Love the owl.
...sending along my thanks for your contribution for all the birders at I'd Rather B Birdin' this week. Very enjoyable.
My goodness, Eileen, such a wonderful variety of interesting and beautiful critters and your photos are amazing! I would have been thrilled to see the Barred Owl, the Anhinga, the Peacock Butterfly - well, truthfully, every single one of the critters you show here would be thrilling to see, even the "common" ones. Many thanks for hosting!
What a nice fix of birds you shared today, Eileen!
Lot of birds, different critters; lots of portraits!! Lovely to see them from so close! what amazing place! Thank you so, so much! A very sunny day and a pleasant weekend, too!
Someone had a busy day. Thanks for these splendid pictures.
How I love seeing all of these, and wish I was there to photograph them for myself. specially the Green Heron and the osprey!
Very nice photos. I'm partial to Limpkins. Not really much to look at, but their near-specificity to the Florida peninsula and reclusive habits made them, when I was a kid birder in NJ, one of my most sought-after species if I ever got to Florida. So here I am living here and I still feel the excitement when I get to even hear their wailing out in the wetlands.
Hi Eileen, Your visit to Circle B Bar Reserve resulted in some excellent photos and thank you for sharing them! Also, thank you for hosting Saturday's Critters. I'm linking up with you again this weekend. Best regards to you from Seattle and have a happy week ahead!
I love the herons but that anhinga is spectacular!
You have great eyes to spot that owl!
Excelentes fotografias minha amiga, gostei.
Um abraço e bom Domingo.

Great shots of all of the birds and gator, Eileen. My fave is the blue heron!
Thanks for hosting and have a great week.
I have yet to see a live owl... great shot! In fact all the pictures are wonderful! We had what I THINK was a Sharpie visit us yesterday and scare away all the little birds. Your picture of the Red-shouldered made me doubt it, but... definitely not Red-shouldered! Thanks for sharing! Hugs!
Oh my - such loveliness captured!
I could hear an owl during the night, when I was visiting my sister in Jefferson County, Florida. It was warm enough to sleep with the windows open. I could hear a soft "who who who."
They are all so extra ordinary. That barred owl is a bit scary with those closed eyes!
The Anhinga is a beauty. Love all these shots!
Good morning! I'm a wee bit late again, but work (beginning at 7 am these last two mornings has a way of getting in my free time for blogging! These critters sure live the best of places! Pretty photos all of them Eileen.
Great shot s of all those birdies..Love the owl and the Hawk..I guess I am a fan of birds of prey..Never heard of an Anhinga..(very different look.)..or a Peacock Butterfly..beautiful.
Enjoy this beautiful day..
Hello Eileen, what a beautiful collection of images you've shared.
I always enjoy seeing owls, but all of your shots are great.
Hope your weekend has been an enjoyable one
All the best Jan

Wonderful pictures, Eileen. Hope your week is off to a good start.
I love all the different herons you see there and the fish eagle is a remarkable looking bird! You are having such nice bird sightings there in Florida!
Have a good week!

Pictures of the birds looks amazing:)
Eileen-these pictures are amazing and I especially love the captures of the different varieties of Heron. We really don't get to see them too much here, so this is a treat!
Dearest Eileen; Wow wow!!! I don't know how I stated my comment p:-) Firstly, your Osprey is SO Beautiful and Elegant♡♡♡ Mine I could take recently at the Natural Park was from observation center through glasses p:-) And YES, I'm excited to see the varieties of herons in this post♩ I thought Red Shouldered Hawk is lovely with sweet colors. Anhinga is so different from cormorant I can see here and great picture of showing off pretty feather♫♫♫
Thank you very much for hosting.
