Hello,
Can you believe it is November already, time is just flying by.
I am sharing some photos from our first visit to Circle B Bar Reserve. Since arriving in Florida we have been to the Circle B Reserve a few times. I can tell it will be one of my favorite places for a birding outing and walk.
My Osprey sky shot.
A Limpkin, one of the common birds seen at Circle B
A view of the pier at Lake Hancock, my fence shot for Tex's Good Fence meme.
A view of the sky and lake. This is Lake Hancock seen from the trail at Circle B.
A pretty Great Blue Heron with the mossy trees.
I love these moss covered trees. Circle B Bar Reserve is close enough to our place, I am sure we will be visiting often.
Back in our neighborhood, two Little Blue Herons standing on the dock fence.
Sunset over our lake.
I hope you enjoyed my photos. 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. Also, I want to mention visiting Jerry's blogs @ As the crackerhead crumbles and Sitehoundsniffs
Thanks to Theresa @ The Run*A*Round Ranch for hosting Good Fences.
Thank you to Sylvia, Yogi and Sandy for hosting Skywatch Friday.

Hello,
Beautiful photos and birds! The blue heron is very pretty.
Happy Thursday!
You moved? When did I miss this??? Must have been one of my trips. Yikes! I am behind.
Looks like a cool reserve. You always find the goodies!
Have a great weekend

Um abraço e continuação de boa semana.

Amazing photos of the osprey and limpkin. The mossy trees are so pretty too and i enjoyed seeing the views across the lake especially at sunset.
Have a wonderful day!

God helg fra Anne-Mari
Oh you lucky dog!!!! What a great place to live near, Eileen...:)JP
Beautiful!
Have a wonderful day!
Wonderful birds, especially the limpkin. And the mossy trees are fascinating. It seems like they would create an eerie atmosphere at night.
beautiful scenes. definitely not inmd. :)
Not ONE gator shot? How can you go to that preserve and not have one gator shot?
:)
A famous walk around. My absolute favorite is the photo of two blue herons.
Enjoy the time :-)
Lovely post Eileen, those first 2 birds are superb!
And the sunset so delicate :)
Keep well and enjoy the last part of the week!!
I did not know the Circle b is there. these are beautiful. that is the best photo of a Limpkin I have ever seen. I know you love this place
I remember visiting Florida and imagining that I would have to search earnestly for Limpkins, but they seemed to be in every wetland I visited. Great bird though.
I always enjoy your fabulous bird photos. It is fun to see such unique birds of other places. Fall continues to have its way here with mild weather, so mild that we are beginning to worry about not getting any moisture. While we love the warm weather, we do know that we need some wet weather. Continue to enjoy your Snow Bird status. I will enjoy reading about it.
Wow! Some of my favorite bird photos, Eileen. That sunset shot is so pretty. Thanks for sharing your trip with us.
Missy trees and bird views . . .
Great decision you have made I would say . . .
I've walked those trails! But circle B is an overnight trip for us, so I'm lucky to get there once during the season. You chose a great spot for your Winter adventure! Love the Limpkin and the scenery....
Really nice shots...love the osprey just cause I love them. I have only seen one in real life. And I love the feel of the shot under those trees!
I have never seen a limpkin. The birds you photograph are amazing to me. Beautiful scenes.
Awesome Osprey shot and other nature shots are divine as always ~ thanks!
Wishing you a week of your choice ~ ^_^
Hello Eileen!:) Fabulous captures of the wildlife. Love your Osprey shot against such a brilliant blue sky, and the Limpkin, which is a lovely bird, and not at all common here. Love the view of the pier, and the moss covered trees. It must be lovely to walk in this reserve.
These are really beautiful!
I really love the mossy trees and the Blue Heron. I can see why you revisit this area often. It appears to have a variety of wonderful birds and scenery. A beautiful shot of the sky and lake, Eileen. Have a wonderful weekend.
Love the two herons contemplating life. Beautiful area.
Wonderful bird photos and the sunset shot is great too!
Your photography is excellent, Eileen. Beautiful photos. Love all the birds.

Some gorgeous shots Eileen... Florida? I must've missed something (have been away, so need to catch up!) YAM xx
You always take such great pictures!! Beautiful
Looks like you're enjoying the warm weather and continue to take great pictures.
You always have the best photos of birds I will probably never see. Thank you. Hug B
Eileen these were so lovely. The lakes are so pretty, the birds are wonderful and the fences were good. - It's always a pleasure to see your photos.
What a gorgeous place, Eileen! So much beauty here! I love your photos, thank you so much for sharing this lovely tour!
Wonderful shots, Eileen. The osprey is quite magnificent. Love the feathers on that Limpkin. I'm not familiar with Limpkins.
The fence along the walkway is a nice feature for sure. Hope you have a good weekend.
Those first 2 images are really awesome! Beautiful scenery! Have a beautiful weekend!
Eileen, beautiful images!
Great photos Eileen, so interesting I had never heard of a limpkin and never saw this bird. I googled the bird and now I know why, it's a real American bird. Blogging is so informative.
Amazing shots in a amazing spot
It looks like you have found a great place to spend winters, Eileen!
Beautiful clicks of the birds..
2016 is almost at the end... time flies
Beautiful photos of the birds. But above all I love the pic of Lake Hancock. Nice photo.
Magnificent photos, Eileen. It is good to see good in our world.
Beautiful location and photos! I love the spanish moss hanging from the trees... so atmospheric!
November - yikes! Sounds like you are having a busy time too EIleen, I'm catching back on all your posts and I'm happy to see the beautiful Florida birds.

The two blue herons look as if they're just met up for a good catch up and might head off for a cup of coffee afterwards. hee hee! ;-)
it's just beautiful there, i am loving those 2 little herons. soon you will have to change your handle to "eileeninfla"!!!
Such a beautiful place for taking pictures. I love all of the birds of course, especially the osprey.
Hi Eileen, Wow, you got some great shots at the Circle B Bar Reserve! Impressive close ups! I am envious of you down there in Florida for the winter! :-) I'll be looking forward to a lot of your excellent photography. Have a fine weekend ahead!
That is a great place for walk, but thankful it is fenced in.
Beautiful shots, I love the Limpkin. I have never heard of it before. I even love the name.
I'd love to see a Limpkin, so special thanks for showing one! Enjoy your time in Florida.
Hi Eileen, You have "Wowed" me with that Limpkin! It is pretty hard to get to see these rather shy and secretive birds. Good job! Glad you are enjoying Florida. I will keep that spot in mind when we visit other places here in FL. Have a super good Friday tomorrow!
That looks like such a great place to visit, the birds are amazing. Your sky shot is so tranquil, it looks like dawn, was it?
These pictures are gorgeous Eileen! Thank you for sharing this wonderful place.
Hello, Beautiful post and awesome pics.
Thanks for sharing.
i really enjoyed visit of this so calm and beautiful place through your amazing photos .
worth visiting when you need peace of mind though.
sky and lake shot is so captivate ,
and Heron on the dock hold my eyes for long with their isolation soothing effect
have a blessed weekend dear
Great shots of birds at Circle B. The moss covered trees are beautiful! I also love the sunset shot.
I could see why this would be a favorite place - It's beautiful, and I wouldn't know where to look first!
Stunning photos of the birds, love the last photo of the sun setting. Have a lovely week.

Wowzer. The osprey shot alone makes me jealous. I hope you have a great weekend!
Wow, the lake is gigantic! A very clever and wonderful series, well done.
The Osprey shot is gorgeous as is the Blue Heron in the trees..Nice picture.Cute Limpkin..love it's name..Enjoy your weekend..
Eileen, your shots are "other worldly!" So beautiful they seem like paradise. The blue heron - so serene amid his lush environment! What a life!
Really beautiful shot---as yours always are. Isn't it fun to go somewhere else to take photographs.

A great selection again Eileen, I particularly like the Osprey ...
and the sunset over the lake is beautiful, so tranquil.
I hope you've had a good week, they certainly zoom by.
Enjoy the up-coming weekend
All the best Jan
Great pic of the blue Heron and the mossy tree. I saw one this week on the pond near our house but didn't have my camera. I should go over to the pond again. Thanks.
What a wonderful place to visit and see you on the great birds. The Limpkin it's my favourite
Dearest Eileen; In your GORGEOUS photographs from your visit, my favorite is the ELEGANT Osprey♫♫♫ How handsome(♡^.^♡)
Sending Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan to my Dear friend in America, xoxo Miyako*
Fantastic place to have a walk with such trees covered with moss and blue birds. The view of the sky and lake is amazing; and the orange sunset, as well!
Best regards in november, Eileen and a very good weekend, too!
Oh, I love the limpkin!
Those birds look fantastic indeed!
Thanks for sharing such wonderful photos, Eileen!
A beautiful sequence... and once again... an amazing place to visit!
