Linking up with Skywatch Friday
HAPPY SPRING!!!!
I have more photos from our visit to Middle Creek WMA.. We had a lovely day to be the sky was blue with the white puffy clouds. It was a little windy and cold but the nice thing was NO SNOW.
At times the skies were filled with Snow Geese and the Tundra Swans like the shot above.
On this shot, I like the tree, sky and seeing the Snow Geese on the lake.
This the view from the visitor center window..the Snow Geese are way off in the distance.
I love the clouds in this shot and the Swan silhouettes.
Here is another group of the Tundra Swans coming in for a landing.
I really enjoyed seeing the close to 5000 Tundra Swans.. This group was walking on the ice.
I hope you enjoyed seeing more from Middle Creek WMA , the Snow Geese and the Tundra Swans.
To see more pretty skies from around the world please visit Skywatch Friday

Eileen, do you know we were just a mile away, stopping at Burkholder's Fabrics, when we went to the Lancaster Quilt Show last week - but we simply knew nothing about this spot. Amazing! It's got me interested in watching for the swan migration here.

Nothing more lovely than a bird-filled blue sky! Love these pictures.
It was funny, just as I started typing this comment, Bill called me in to watch a segment on the news about Kerney Nebraska and the thousands of snow-geese and cranes returning for spring. It was a nice piece ending the nightly news on a happy note. (I think he was watching NBC).
Fantastic!!!!! Lovely birds and beautiful skies!!!!
It is already much warmer in Athens,my husband went to swim yesterday!!!!
I wish you a happy Spring!!
Lovely wintry photos. The snow geese are so beautiful--how lucky you are to be surrounded by such interesting wildlife. Have a great weekend. Mickie ;)
Just an amazing sight!! The tree in second image really grabbed my attention!! What a gorgeous shape, I'll bet it's beautiful filled with leaves!!
Wonderful shots. I love seeing such a large group of swans and the high steps some are taking on the ice is fantastic.
Love the big flocks! That tree is very nice!
Wonderful shots of the geese and swans. I can almost hear their honking. :-)
I've never seen one swan, much less 5000. Beautiful photos.
Beautiful skies, Eileen. I loved seeing all the birds. The swans are so pretty. Happy Spring!
imEileen. What an amazing sight. I especially love the Swans in the last shot.
It does look as if spring may be close! It's wonderful to see all those swans.
I could sit and watch swans for hours but I have never seen so many.
Hi Eileen,
What a beautiful place there.
Beautiful pictures of swans, so much together, really super.
Greetings Irma
Those goose-stepping swans are a hoot!
Such terrific pictures. Loved seeing them and envy you the chance to see those wonderful birds in such large numbers. On ice no less.
Beautiful sky indeed!! And to see that amount of swans in one place...I think I'd have a heart attack!!!!!!
The swans are so pretty -- how neat to see so many of them while they try to find open water. xo
I love the tree shot too Eileen, the air looks so crisp. Those swans are beautiful, the last image is particularly exquisite.
Wow!That's a real crowded sky!
fantastic collection of photos, eileen! what a beautiful place too.
big hugs!
A wonderful view of all those tundra Swans on the ice there Eileen. It looks so cold and I'm glad it'd stopped snowing for you. Here's hoping you have a warm and snow free weekend.
...and happy spring!! xo
All beautiful Eileen, but the snow geese and tundra swans are my favorites today:-)
Oh, my that's a lot of birds. Love the bottom three photos. My WW
Wonderful photos and so lovely scenery :)
Have a happy weekend :)
I love the last image. They look so beautiful together.
Great set of wonderful landscapes and wildlife images!
Wow ....... I find this really beautiful to see! Stunning views and what many swans! Great to see Eileen.
Thank you for sharing :-)
Denise, right now I would love to see just 1 tundra swan! That place looks like a birder's heaven!
Lovely skies, Eileen! I love all those Geese!
Hello Eileen
A very enjoyable Post. Those Tundra Swans are more than beautifully gorgeous. What a privilege to be there to see them, and even more wonderful is being able to visit here and experience them through your photos. Thank you.
In the last photo is that a duck among the Swans?
I fully admire the way the birds cope with snow and ice.
Viewing the sky filled with Swans and Geese is wonderful.
Love the bare tree setting and the lookout from the visitor's centre.
You may have had a difficult Winter, but from here in Australia after a hot dry Summer, your photos are refreshing and cooling to experience.
I've enjoyed my visit. Thank you.
WOW! Eileen!
Love those snow geese shots. We were watching a program on TV the other night about the snow geese if you knew about it!! HA!! You're in the middle of them!!
And those Tundra Swans!! Absolutely beautiful!! They seem to be such a large bird to fly a distance!
Oh, how amazing! These are gorgeous views. Wish I could see it for myself. Wow.
