Linking up with NF Winged and Skywatch Friday
Can you believe another week is flying by? It's time for my favorite Skywatch Friday and some birds for NF Winged

I have been hearing the baby herons and on this day I just barely managed to catch one of the adult herons flying over my yard back to the nest. You wouldn't believe the sounds coming from the heron nest, one of our neighbors thought the sounds were coming from some wild animals.

This moon shot was taken June 1 the last quarter with 43 % visable. I saw a pretty crescent moon this morning. I will try to get a crescent shot in the morning.

During last weekend's walk with hubby, I saw this pretty Scarlet Tanager. He was high up in the tree among the tulip poplar blooms.

On this morning driving to work , I saw somewhat of a sunrise, there is some pink behind the fog.The silhouettes of the trees look pretty. These trees have grown so fast and so high, they are now blocking my view of the sunrise during my ride to work. :(

Further along on my ride to work, I could see more of the sunrise and a pretty pink sky.

I am ending this post with another shot of the colorful Scarlet Tanager. I hope you enjoyed my birds and skies.

We are supposed to have the scarlet tanagers here, but I have not seen one. Our neighbors regularly see some in their yard. You'd think I'd see such a bright bird.
How neat to have baby herons right in the neighborhood.
Enjoyed :)
Birds, moon and the skies.
Have a wondeful day.

i love 2 & 4 .... the moon & that foggy shot ... nice views. so mysterious. like the fog is rolling in... super cool!! ( :
Love your blog header! I have yet to see a Tanager...
I love your pretty skies!
The sky shots are awesome and so are the bird shots!
You spot the best birds! He is beautiful!
I love seeing the herons flying, but I have never been to a heron rookery, so I don't know what sort of noise they make...
I love that image of the moon!!!
So beautiful of your sky shot, and bird! Have a great weekend!
There's a successful day!
I've never seen a Tanager here in the Atlanta area nor in the northern Fla. area!! Lovely little birds - so bright in color!! Your skys are beautiful!
Time sure is flying by!
Love these shots - gorgeous moon and lovely purple skies.
Hallo Eileen!!Great news from the herons nest!!I can imagine how it sounds from there!!Amazing pictures of the scarlet tanagers!!!Nice shots of the moon and the sunrise!!!Have a lovely weekend!
Dimi..
Yes, for sure I enjoyed your photos of birds and skies! I am still on a hunt to get the "perfect" shot of a scarlet tanager.
Nice set! Especially the moon. I missed the scarlet tanager during migration this year. Will have to wait another year to hopefully see him.
Surprisingly tanagers are very difficult to see :-) nice find! I didn't know you Had that bird there. The Tanager group is really neat!
I enjoyed your birds and skies!!! And of course the beautiful moon!
Have a nice day! Kisses!!
gosh, would love to see a scarlet tanager! loved the shot of the sunrise w/ trees. :) and wish i could hear those herons, too.
Your sunrise photos are amazingly beautiful, Eileen! Loved seeing the scarlet tanager and the tulip tree. I have never seen a scarlet tanager - how colorful! We have a tulip tree but it grows in a very shady area and it remains small and has not bloomed. Our neighbors have one that blooms, I guess I just have to enjoy theirs.
You get some great drive-by shots on your way to work. You've had some beautiful skies. I like your photos of the Scarlet Tanager, and your moon shot is fabulous.
What a beautiful pink glow to accompany you on your way to work! Love the moon shot!
Love the shots of the Scarlet Tanager and your morning sky shots are beautiful!
I love trees of course, but I'll miss your morning sky shots! (However, maybe you can sleep in a few more minutes, with no need to stop for a photo op.)
Wonderful scarlet tanager...red birds are always so special to me, because I never really saw any in the part of Oregon where we lived for so long.
What a beatiful red bird - we don´t have them in Sweden. However I have a tulip poplar but I have never seen any flowers on it.
Hi Eileen!! Nice shots. I really like the one of the heron in flight. The Tanager is not seen in the UK, so is a new bird to me. Love his bright colours!!
Wonderful set of images. I like that moon shot.
That moon shot is so cool! I just love it! And that tanager is so beautiful!
To był dobry dzień, gdy słońce tak pieknie wschodziło. Pozdrawiam.
It was a good day, when the sun was rising so beautiful. Yours.
The Scarlet Tanager is so beautiful.
Beautiful birds and sky photos, Eileen. After hearing 2-3 Baby Bluebirds squealing at the feeders for Daddy to feed them, I can only imagine how LOUD the baby Herons are..... ha
Hugs,
Betsy
The moon picturei is so dreamy and just simply stunning
Love the photos! Your Scarlet Tanager is wonderful! Oh, and I LOVE the blues on your header!
Love your photos Eileen. I think we do not have tanager here in Michigan this bird is so pretty.

Love the foggy pink sunrise! I think fog (when its not too heavy) makes such stunning landscape photos! The Scarlet Tanager is gorgeous!
excellent clicks
happy SWF
Gorgeous photos!! And that moon shot is something else!!
Tammy

Awesome captures for the day, Eileen!! Love the moon! And your birds are always delightful! Wonderful variety of skies!! Hope you have a great weekend!!
Akk kinds of different skies ! the moon is awsome !

Thanks for sharing and enjoy your weekend.
Lovely colours .. birds and the sunrise. Have a great weekend Eileen.
everything is just beautiful. i am a fan of your bird photography.
Such beautiful shots of the bird and the sky is so pretty.
Fantastic Eileen, Happy SkyWatch Friday :)
Love your moon shots.
Lovely skies!
Yes, the weekend is coming soon, looks to be a wet one. The scarlet tanagers are so pretty. I hope to see a "real" one some day. Last year I saw my first Tulip tree, I'd never heard of it. So pretty! Have a great weekend!
Beautiful photos, but I think the moon shot is my favorite! Happy skywatching.
The bird, moon and skies look wonderful. Love it, Eileen.

a beautiful collection of images of nature in many different moods, have a great weekend
I always enjoy your birds and skies. That Tanager is gorgeous! I've been occupied with switching computers and transferring info and photos. Very time-consuming project. I may have to go to posting only once a week. I'm in front of this computer way too much!!
Very nice photos. Love the moon shot.
These are lovely shots, Eileen! That's a gorgeous sunrise amongst the fog and that little bird is very sweet!
Love your skies Eileen. I hope those herons don't wake you up too early but I'm guessing you actually don't mind too much? Have a great weekend with lots of birding.
Your moon shot takes my breathe away. Have a lovely weekend, Eileen. xx
This week has flown by hasn't it? All are gorgeous shots Eileen but that little Scarlet Tanager really catches my eye. Such a brilliant red.
Happy Weekend!
As usual, very nice skies and moon.
the scarlet bird is stunning! beautiful photos.
Lots of great shots, as usual, Eileen! Love the tanager and the beautiful tree it's in!
