This is my entry for Natures Notes and Weekend Reflections and Friday Ark. You can click on my links to visit.
These shots were from one of my birding trips to Bombay Hook, De. On this trip we saw many Egrets and Black Crowned Night Herons. I alway enjoy the birds reflections and on this day there seem to be bird reflections everywhere we looked. Bombay Hook is one of my favorite wildlife refuges to visit. The birding there is great. It was cool to see so many juvenile Black Crowned Night Herons.

Beautiful reflections of wonderful birds. Water reflections are so calming :-)
What a great birding place Eileen. I am so hoping that we have time this summer to get all the way up the East Coast. If not this summer, someday!

What a wonderful place to view shore birds. I love the reflections you got of the egret and black necked stilt. These are all very appealing shots.
They are so many out there, and thus you have become a very odd one in their yes.
Looks like an astounding place. Beautiful photos, Eileen.
Everything looks so gentle, like these birds have not a care in the world.
wonderful and lovely reflections Eileen.
Have a great weekend.
I can see why Bombay Hook is a favorite of yours. Beautiful photos!

I can see why you like that place Eileen, it must be a place to linger a long time - I wish it was a bit nearer to me. Nice shot of all those avocets.
I didn't do a W.R...but I'm warming up for one. I love that first image!! These are really neat birds Eileen (the tree swallows below are terrific as well)! I feel as if I'm dredging the bottom ..(lol) I'm good with it but realize I may never get out and travel -only I certainly appreciate what you capture and admire all of the fantastic places you are able to visit! Thanks for sharing this!
What great shots and the reflection in the third shot is so cool. Very nicely done.
Hello Eileen, it is such a delight to see so many winged friends looking so happy and undisturbed. After all those harrowing oil-spill photos, I am thankful to see photos like yours for a change! Beautiful capture. Am sure it's such a beautiful experience for you as well. :) Mother Earth rejoices in your shots! Love it!
Fantastic captures! And what a beautiful place! Love the birds and the reflections in the water! Wonderful post for the day! Enjoy your weekend, Eileen!

So beautifully delicate in the shooting of the herons.

I get excited when I see one heron or egret ... to see this many in one place - absolute magic!!!
Wow! A great place to visit for birding. Love the first one, bird perched on the twig.
