Linking up with Skywatch Friday and Good Fences
I am sharing one of my sunrise shots from last week and some shots from our weekend walk along a creek not far from our house..It is just under a 2 mile drive to get to the creek parking area and the trail leads us to a different section of our lake.
First, I will start my post with a shot of the sunrise over a local field.
For my Good Fence post I have a neighborhood farm, I pass by this farm with their beautiful white horse and a donkey everyday on the way to work..I thought it would make a great fence shot for Tex's Good Fence meme..
I can walk from the house to see this pretty horse, I think there are plenty of fences in this shot. The new fence was put up recently..
Now onto our walk, hubby and I were walking along the creek trail, I happened to see one eagle flying away and then I looked down and across the creek and there was another eagle eating a fish.. I think the reflection is cool.
We watched the eagle eating the fish for a little while. Then with the fish still clutched in its claws, the eagle flew off down the creek with the fish.. Most likely taking the fish back to the nest..
We spooked a large group of Canada Geese when we walked up to the lake shore.. Some flew and some swam just to the other side.
We reached the lake, which was our stopping point for the day. The sky was a pretty blue with some clouds here and there. A pretty day for a walk.
A gorgeous sunset shot, thanks to my hubby!
I hope you enjoyed my post and photos from our weekend walk..

a lovely start and finish to your post with the sun at opposing ends of the day ... great picking up the eagle!
Hi Eileen,
this is a wonderful walk with surprises. The eagle is gorgeous and your last photo is my favorite with this incredible beautiful sunset.
Best regards, Synnöve
Lovely pics from your walk. And, it looks like hubby isn't too shabby with a camera either.
Enjoy the day
Hi Eileen, beautiful shots of the eagle eating on the water's edge. Is that your [American]Bald Eagle? I love the sun/sky shot. I am about to join in the Good fences meme with Tex. I'm following her amazing blog already so want to join in this fun too. Have a great day. Jo
Gorgeous eagle...and such a lovely walk you took us on Eileen.
Hi Eileen, thanks for sharing your walk with us, it was wonderful. What a surprise for you to come across that eagle - yes, I agree, those reflections in the shot are great :D)
AWESOME!...Just awesome, Eileen!...:)JP
Loved how you bookended your array with beautiful sunrise and sunset shots :)
i love the start & end of your post best. those sun shots are amazing.
the la pièce de résistance (i don't speak French, i hope that is the right word, i know i few words, my parents took French the brother & i took Spanish, ha. ha!!) is the eagle. wow, & is he eating something? you must have a great camera to get him without him noticing. awesome!! you go Eileen!! ( :
Fantastic sunrise pic. And that wooden fence in the third picture is amazing!!!
I can always count on the best photos when I walk along with you and your hubby!
Hi Eileen,

Love the eagles shots!
What beautiful scenery you had on your walk! The sunrise is spectacular! Great capture of the eagle, too. Have a lovely weekend. xo Karen
Oh wow! Love your sunrise/sunsets shots! Wonderful fences too! I should be back to blogging full-time next week.
Gorgeous sunrise and sunset! I like new fences before they get painted. And I'm envious of your eagle shots!
I came for the skywatch but fell in love with the fence shot.
Nice fence picture. Those horse fences seem to go on forever.
Beautiful sunset picture. Reminds me of the lake I used to walk around before we moved up here.
Eileen, The sunset shot is beautiful and those eagles and their reflection are priceless. Gosh, you were lucky as well as prepared. I would love to come across that scene and take those same kind of great shots. Have a terrific weekend. Mickie :)
I love the beautiful long range photo you got of the fence and the fields! And that eagle photo is spectacular! What an amazing sighting! Enjoy your week! Hugs, Diane
You got some great fence shots. I like the one with the horse and the long winding fence. May I just say too those Eagle shots are fantastic. What a thrill that had to have been.
What a beautiful walk Eileen. You really do live in Paradise. That's a wonderful Eagle sighting. We are seeing so many here in Alaska, but I have yet to catch one at dinner!
You managed to get several fences in that one shot. A day with an eagle sighting is great--and the reflections is nice, too.
Beautiful beginning and end of your day! And catching the eagle was superb.
Awesome eagle shots. I've never seen eagle in nature here.
Enjoying your sky shots as well.
Beautiful shots of sky and scenery.
It can't be everyday that you catch some great eagle-picture. And the fence around the horse is so nice and long.
I love the other photos also.
Have a nice day!
Wonderful scenes staring with that sunrise. Great fence shots and also marvelous reflections of the Eagle.
That looks like a lovely place to live ... and you and your husband got some amazing shots.Love the eagle by the stream, and the beautiful reflection!
Thank you for sharing your lovely world.

Lovely skies Eileen, always quite a wonder to watch!
Congrats for the fish eagle too, what a superb sighting!
i love your peckie too in previous post, well done!
Enjoy your weekend!
Fantastic sky in number 1, and I love the Eagle, fabulous.
Lovely sky captures.
Hi, Eileen; So sorry for my belated comment. I'm finally catching up ;-)
I LOVED the way you started with sun-rise and close with the sun-set♬♬♬
Long fence in the huge area and GORGEOUS eagle during your walk (great reflection)♡♡♡ How I wish to enjoy walk with you(*^_^*)
Sending you lots of love and hugs to my dear Japanese friend in America, xoxo Miyako*
Thank you Eileen, you transported me to a warmer place. I
wish I could wander down that lovely winding lane and enjoy the sights and sounds with you. Lovely images as always.
WOW! Lucky you to see the eagle!
Your first and last photo are beautiful, but the shots of the eagle are really super!
What a beautiful area you live in. The countryside is so pretty with the rolling hills (& horses!). And I find it interesting that your lakes are surrounded by deciduous trees as I'm so used to seeing pines surrounding the lakes we visit here. Beautiful sunrise & sunsets too. Enjoy your weekend.

a lovely sunset shot,have a nice weekend.
Hi Eileen,
What a beautiful area you live in! Rolling hills of green, gorgeous horses and pretty fences. Your walks are always so interesting, filled with the beauty of nature.
Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend!

I could take that kind of walk everyday. It looks like a beautiful place and very nice that it is close by. VERY nice photos!
Lucky you with your eagle. WOW! The skies are gorgeous, as is the fence with the horse in the pasture. But that eagle!
I love that eagle shot! So amazing that you can walk your neighborhood and see one... WOW!
You really live in a very pretty area with so much nature to enjoy. Thanks for visiting my SWF!
What a nice place to visit. Loved all your photos, but especially the Eagle.
Looked like a wonderful day (except for the poor fish!), appropriately bracketed by a gorgeous sunrise and sunset! The sunset photo is my favorite - so serenely beautiful - you and your husband make a great team! :-)
I could see the sunsets all the time. It is so incredibly soothing and beautiful!
Take care:)))
Fabulous sunset shot!
an amazing post and my fave is that last shot of the sunset. such a gorgeous light my friend!
big hugs
happy sunday~
xoxo
Wow .... the pictures of the skies are truly visionary sich!
And what a huge bird of prey you can photograph. Great to see! Your last photo is a unique photo and so beautiful! My sincere compliments.
Warmest regards, Helma
