Hello,
Hubby and I decided to visit Cordorus Reservoir, after visiting our son who lives nearby. We are still watching Nibbles, our son's cruise ship returns to Florida Tomorrow. Please say a prayer for all in Florida and the path of Hurricane Matthew!
We noticed the water level was way down. The mud flats at the reservoir are a great place to see birds like the herons, egrets and migrating shorebirds. Birds seen at the reservoir, the Killdeer, Great Blue heron, Green Heron, Great Egret, Mallards and Wood Ducks.
We pass this farm on the way to the Cordorus Reservoir. A nice fence scene for Tex's Good Fences meme.
Walk this way, a Great Blue Heron
A view of the mud flats and Cordorus reservoir in Hanover Pennsylvania.
Another farm on the way home. Lots of fences below.
The same evening this was our sunset from the deck.
The colors changed to a more pinkish colored sunset.
I hope you enjoyed my birds and scenery from Cordorus, it is also a State Park in Hanover Pennsylvia. Thank you for your visit and comments on my post. Enjoy your day and the weekend ahead!
Here is a list of linky parties for part of the week, I hope to see you there.
Thanks to Theresa @ The Run*A*Round Ranch for hosting Good Fences.
Thank you to Sylvia, Yogi and Sandy for hosting Skywatch Friday.
Thanks to Tom the host of The Barn Collective
Thanks to Nick the host of saturday-silhouettes

What a lovely drive! I love herons - they are ungainly yet elegant at one and the same time!!! YAM xx
Looks like a beautiful place to visit. Love the Heron, one of my favorite birds; so elegant with their long legs and beaks. Have a great day! Heather
Hello Eileen, these are a fabulous set of images from your day! The fences seem to run for miles in the beautiful farmland!
gorgeous colourful sunset too!
Have a happy day!
Hi Eileen,
fabulous photos of the birds and nature in this wonderful area.
Best regards, Synnöve
Hi Eileen-nice spot to visit. I sure could have used your photography skills on our vacation (JUST got home yesterday). I saw lots of interesting birds, but am not yet skilled with my new camera--all the zoom pics turned out blurry.
Lovely shots!
Those pink sunsets are beautiful. I love the way herons walk, they are just too goofy.
Ah
Need to grab my hikers and camera and GO
What a lovely place, Eileen! Beautiful series, thank you so much for sharing. I hope you are having a great week. :)
Nothing more beautiful than farm land surrounded by so many interesting sights.
Great fence scenes you found ~ wonderful photography ~ thanks!
Wishing you a Happy Week ~ ^_^
The scenery is so rich, open and fresh,with beautiful grass. I like Blue Heron pictures, as, I have never seen a live one. Very nice post. I wanted to let you know that you might like my garden blog, I've had it a few years, and have entered a few new posts this fall. It's called MyTexasGardens.blogspot.com. Have a great weekend Eileen.

Hello Eileen!:) Two beautiful fence scenes,..it's a lovely country area where your son lives, and I love the view of the reservoir and mudflats with all the birds, topped by gorgeous sunset skies.

Great sunset and blue heron pics! I hope your son's ship gets in okay, and I hope the hurricane passes by Florida with minimal damage.
how green is the grass!!!
My inlaws live in Pennsylvania, and I always enjoy riding through the farmland there. The heron is beautiful!
I have friends who have a son in Fla with kids and he’s going to ride it out..How irresponsible is that ?..I have been to that park..Hanover is not far from here..It shows how badly we need rain..Maybe Matthew will bring us some..Lovely series of pictures..

Hi Eileen, The farms are especially spacious and beautiful. Cute birds photos, too. God bless all who are affected by the storm.
Wishing you many blessings this weekend.
is the flat drying out? It looks like our smaller "lakes" we can walk across them now. :(
Love those beautiful photos with all the green as far as you can see and also the colorful sky pictures.
Love that shot of the farm!
Very nice !
Really nice photos! It looks like a beautiful area to spend some time.
Some lovely photo's Eileen, I love your fence ones ... the fences do seem to go on for a long way.
That Great Blue Heron looks super and those skies ... what wonderful colours.
I do hope your son's cruise ship returns safely to Florida. My thoughts are with all those who have been affected by the path of Hurricane Matthew.
All the best Jan
Hi Eileen, How lucky you were to capture so many lovely images all on the one day. I like the road meandering between the tidy black fences. It just picks me up and carries me away. Lovely countryside.
Beautiful captures!!
Best wishes for your son and all those in the path of the Hurricane. Stay safe
I love that first fence shot! Have a nice weekend.
Lovely entry, Eileen. You may wish to include this post into the Saturday Silhouettes meme:

Wonderful shots, Eileen. You always manage to capture beautiful birds so well, but the sunset skies and silhouettes were a great conclusion to the post.
