Skywatching during our walk to the lake. I love these pretty fluffy white clouds and blue sky.

A pretty day for our walk to the lake.

Sometimes we see Bald Eagles fly over this part of the lake but on this day we only saw a GB Heron.

For my NF Winged post I am including a new yard bird..a juvenile Veery.

The Peeping Tom juvie Veery. I caught it looking in our den window.

Another yardbird I was thinking this could be a juvenile Oriole but also looks more like a juvenile male Scarlet Tanager. It's wing looks funny, I hope it is Ok.

This poor bird looks like it has been in a battle. It is flying so I assume it is Ok. It is has been seen in the weeping cherry tree, which is right next to our blueberry bushes. The birds are all having a feast on the blueberries.
Happy Skywatching everyone!

the first one is a super shot and a cute bird I see that he has clean white underpants.
Beautiful birds. Love the Veery . . . such a softness to their coloring . . .
Hi Eileen It is lovely to see the young birds even they do look a bit bedraggled.
Awesome Lake!!! beautiful birds!
Muito lindo e não pude deixar de admirar os céus! Adorei! beijos,chica
Great sky pictures! Love those blue sky-white fluffy cloud days.
what a lovely lake! I love the top photo, the flowers look wonderful against the sky! I hope that last bird is okay...
Lovely skies, and don't forget the birds, awesome Eileen.

Oh, lovely big clouds and pretty birds.
Great series of photos Eileen, the birds are pretty, and so are those skies but Goldie Girl wins the prize :) Have a great day!
A great series. I love the myrtle against the blue, and the fluffy clouds. That lake is a gorgeous colour.
wow, looks like a gorgeous day. those waters are calling for me & my kayak. ( :
those crepe myrtles are a gorgeous color. so cheerful.
all the crepe myrtles are so beautiful right now, i love the variety of colors!!
beautiful skies and cutie birds!!
Beautiful skies and birds, Eileen. Have a great day.
Hi Eileen,
Good shots again, the skies are beautiful.
The birds are great.
Greetings Irma
I love the view out over the lake. It's a gorgeous place. Have a great weekend!
Beautiful walk you took! The bird looks like an Oriole to me judging from the shape of its bill. Not sure what kind of Oriole, though.
Oh how I love the blue sky and white clouds photo - and the birds are wonderful.
I love the shots of the clouds floating by Eileen. How nice to have a juvie Veery in your garden - good pics there. You're right, the tanager doesn't look too happy with iteself but at least it is able to fly and hopefully stay out of any more danger.
WOW, beautiful. never ever do I leave here disappointed. That first shot with the bright blue sky and the red flowers... A M A Z I N G! You really have talent!
Hallo Eileen!!
You realy had a wonderful walk on the lake!!!Beautiful views!!!And so many cute little birds in your yard!!!Great shots!!!Have a lovely week!!!Hugs!!
Dimi...
Hi Eileen! Another lovely walk! You really have an eye for seeing things with and without your camera lens!
I hope you're having a good Thursday!
The crepe myrtle are gorgeous this year!
nice walk today it seems. Don´t think I have seen the Veery before. Juvies are fun to watch as they are so fluffy. :)
Those clouds are so big and fluffy! I miss seeing skies like that because we have had nothing but rain the past week or so. Love the shots with the lake and the dog taking a dip :)
This is a totally new world of birds for me, Eileen. A Veery: I have never heard of it. I also think the Tanager has a funny wing but if it's flying it must be OK. I hope you're having a great day. Jo
Those skies are so beautiful. Love those big puffy clouds!
That last bird does look a little battle-scarred. But still beautiful, as your birds are always. Around here, they are enjoying blackberries on the lake shore. Love the crape myrtle , we don't see that lovely tree ever.
Beautiful skies ~ love the puffy clouds ~ Great shots ~ thanks, carol xo
Beautiful shots at the lake. Love the crepe myrtle against the sky and great bird shots as usual.
Beautiful photos!
Beautiful skies, lovely, colorful flowers, delightful birds!! What a wonderful world you have, Eileen!! Thanks for sharing it with us!! Have a lovely weekend!
Beautiful!! The first one is my favorite. It looks so clean and crisp. I feel like I could reach out and touch the flowers.
Beautiful blooms and clouds in that sky.
Wonderful shots!
Great pictures looks like a wonderful day.
Merle.........
I love that lake, and apparently so does your dog!
Your first photo with the crepe myrtle against the bright blue sky is gorgeous. That little bird looks so pitiful but if he's flying he must be okay.
Great color! Love the little bird!
The lake is gorgeous! My kind of place! Nice shots of your birds, too!
That's such a startling contrast of the crepe myrtle against the azure sky! And the lake images are super. Love the birds, as always.
What a lovely walk, Eileen. Looks like your golden retriever enjoys it too!
a lovely lake for sky watching.
Your pup seems to be enjoying the lake and the sky! Our skies have given us some variety this week - from gray to heavy rain to beautiful blue and white. Not usual August yellow smog.
Wonderful shots and so lovely skies and birds!
Very beautiful photos and post for SWF,Eileen!
Such beautiful shots and a wonderful walk for you all!
beautiful clicks
Yes, beautiful pictures, beautiful clouds, makes me imagine and dream!
These skies are absolutely awesome! Blue skies are great with blooms!
Your skies are very beautiful, and so are the critters in your world. Thanks!
