I am linking up with Mosaic Monday and Our World Tuesday and NF Trees They are both fun memes to participate in...I hope you can join in with the fun and check out some of the participating posts.
I can not believe I have been blogging for 6 years now. My first post Birding with Eileen posted on July 13, 2009 went by quietly. These 6 years seemed to go by so quickly. For this post I am sharing mosaics made with photos taken on my previous anniversaries. I thank everyone who has been following me, visiting my blog and post during the past 6 years. And most of all thank you for all the wonderful comments. Thank you all!
My first post July 2009, we went tubing on the Shenandoah River at Harper's Ferry, Md. The Baltimore Oriole is a breeder bird seen in the trees along the Shenandoah and Potomac rivers at Harper's Ferry.
My second anniversary July 2010, photos of our Prettyboy Lake, Goldie Girl, an Ovenbird and the moon all taken from the yard or around the neighborhood.
3rd Anniversary from July 2011, the Great Kiskadee seen in Bermuda. We took a cruise from Baltimore to Bermuda with hubby and my son.
4th Anniversary July 2012 is my mosaic of backyard birds, flowers and butterfly.
6th Anniversary..July 2014 is a mosaic of my backyard birds the Scarlet Tanager, Eastern Bluebird, Blue jay and the Great Crested Flycatcher with a Bluebird.
And to start off my 7th year of blogging I am sharing a July 2015 mosaic with a juvenile Cardinal and some of my backyard blooms.
I hope you enjoyed my anniversary post and my nature images. Thank you so much for stopping by for a visit. I appreciate the nice comments..

Happy anniversary, dear Eileen!!!!!!
I did not even know about blogging six years ago!!!!!But, from the day I have known you and your blog, I always appreciate your lovely photos of all those beautiful birds and I always admire especially those that you are so lucky to have around your house and in your garden. Thank you for sharing your visits and travels around the parks!
I may not leave comments very often, but I truly enjoy all your posts and wish you many many years of blogging.
Many hugs !!!
Happy anniversary!
Happy Anniversary! What a nifty idea to commemorate your earlier posts with mosaics. I wouldn't have imagined so many people out tubing at the same time. We do have a Willamette River crossing here once a year in tubes, though. All your birds and scenes are interesting.
Congratulations, Eileen. I like the mosaics, giving a look back at your past posts. How good to see your sweet Goldie Girl again.
Congratulations !! And Happy Anniversary!! Beautiful photos. I especially love the golden retriever!
Congrats! I always enjoy following your travels & your awesome photography, thank-you for sharing your memories with us, Phyllis

Thank you, Eileen, for my Stag beetle comment. It is always exciting to find a new species in one's own patch. Thank you very much for the lovely anniversary mosaics ... May I wish you a truly happy blogging anniversary! I must look up mine ...
Thank you, too, for the mosaic making tips: I have long admired these beautiful collages. As for the juvenile Cardinal, well, what strange colours!

Congrats to you. Loved all your photos.
Pretty colorful birds are such eye catchers.
Six years! I enjoyed your review over the years. Congratulations on all your posts and have a great week.
Wow, 6 years already - congratulations Eileen! I have no idea when I started but will look it up.
It has been a pleasure seeing your birds (mostly) and blooms here and on FB. I always know if I can't ID a bird, you'll likely know what it is and I appreciate that aspect from you as a blogging sister.
Brought a lump to my throat to see Goldie Girl as you shared her often in your posts and I miss her too.
Thanks for linking to Mosaic Monday.
Eileen,
Congrats on your six years and I have enjoyed viewing nature with you so very much. You have opened up a new world for me and I always feel refreshed, renewed and thankful for the beauty in our world!
Happy Monday too~

Fantastic photos Eileen. Happy 6th anniversary!
AH, gorgeous captures indeed -- as always, Eileen!! You and I began blogging at almost the exact same time!! It is amazing how quickly the past six years have slipped by!! I always enjoy your posts/photos so much!! Thank you for sharing! Have a great new week!!
Congrats on your sixth anniversary. Time seems to fly when blogging. I started in 2007 with one blog and now I have four to manage. It's almost too much, especially since I don't have Internet access at my cabin home. That makes scheduling posts a must. I always enjoy your bird photos. - Margy
Congratulations on your blogging anniversary. The mosaic for today with the bird and flowers is really beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Many, many congratulations. I can see that you produced a high standard of photos right from the very beginning,
That is a lot of blogging and picture taking. Congratulations on a job well done! The years do speed by though, don’t they? Before you know it, six years have gone by. :)
Lovely photos, congratulations on your blogoversary
Great pictures. I am always amazed at the array of birds you are able to capture.
Happy 6 years blogging Eileen, I am so glad to have found you through Good Fences and visit your beautiful photography and nature each week. You are a joy and inspiration.
Love the pic of you golden. Reminds me of my sweet Miss Beazy lee. She loved the water too.
Hugs,cm
Many congratulations on your 6th anniversary Eileen. I look forward to the next six years and many more of your fabulous pictures and lost. :-)

6 years seem like a long time. And you know it :) Thanks to that I made my way to Costa Rica. I thank you for that :)
I have no clue whatsoever of how long I´ve been blogging but it must be longer then that. :) I don´t dare checking :)
Warm congrats on this happy occasion! Lots of joy and creativity, all the best, as well!
Happy blog anniversary!
Happy 6th Blogoversary Eileen, huge congratulations! You have developed a keen and loyal following for your posts. Your blogs and Saturday's Critters are amongst the most popular around. What would be interesting would be to see how many visits you have made during this time, as you are so generous in visiting others and in leaving lovely comments. What goes around comes around, as judged by the fact I had to take a bus to the end of your congratulatory comments here today! Enjoy :)
