Linking up with NF Winged and Skywatch Friday
I am sharing more New Jersey skies and birds from our visit last week. We were up early to check out the sunrise. We were hoping for a clear and pretty sky, we were not disappointed. Before heading for home we made a quick stop back the the Edwin Forsythe NWR.
A view of the moon setting from our room.It was a day after the full moon.
Sunrise rising above the Atlantic Ocean
A flock of Brant
A couple of Brant..they are a small goose. I think they are more attractive than the Common Canada Goose.
A view of Atlantic City and sky from the Edwin Forsythe NWR.
Some Snow Geese seen at the wildlife refuge.
On this morning the Snowy Owl was out on the field or marshy land. We saw it flying some landing in different places along the wildlife drive.
Thank you for visiting my post, I hope you enjoyed my birds and Atlantic City sunrise.
To see more pretty skies from around the world please visit Skywatch Friday

Beautiful start to the day! And love the capture of the flying birds.
Your sunrise over the Atlantic looks just like my sunrise over the Atlantic in Florida!! ALWAYS LOVELY!! I wonder and feel sorry for the poor birds and geese sitting in the water with it being soo very cold!! Surely they feel the cold??? Nice Snowy Owl!!
My comment didn't seem to post -- Lovely shot of the sunrise over the Atlantic. I always feel for the birds and geese that paddle around in the cold waters. Nice shot also of the Snowy Owl.
How peaceful this all look !
Beautiful sunrise shot!! I like your snowy owl too!
I love the distant view of Atlantic City through the marsh lands, Eileen! Seeing the snowy owls, both here, and on your facebook, was so exciting!
Have a good weekend!
Such beautiful shots! Have a great weekend.
great collection of photos, the snowy owl is a delightful find in winter, they used to frequent our beach home when we lived in MA
Beautiful photos! I love the sunrise and the owl. Have a happy weekend!
