'I am sharing some photos of critters and birds seen from our walk at the local Hashawha Nature Center. We walk a loop that goes by several ponds, their raptor center, wildflower field and back past the larger lake.
A couple of Slider Turtles sunning themselves.
Some views from our loop hike around the nature center.
From the Raptor Center, the Red-tailed Hawk and a Barred Owl. These birds are hurt and can not survive in the wild.
Some scenes from the larger lake, included the Great Blue Heron, wild hibiscus and a turtle.
I appreciate and thank everyone who links up their post and for all the wonderful comments! I hope you enjoy my post and photos too!
Here is a list of my linky parties;

Hello Eileen,
Beautiful series of photos and collages.
All perfectly photographed.

It's always sad to see caged birds from the wild....but necessary.
Thank you, Eileen, for hosting this weekend!!
That is a beautiful collage with the flowers. My daughter had a pet turtle once, but he ran away! lol. His name was George.
I absolutely love turtles! Great photos, as always. Thank you for hosting! -Marci @ Stone Cottage Adventures
Gostei de ver.Lindas todas e cada pedacinho do mosaico! beijos, ótimo fds! chica
Enjoyed the birds and the flowers in both mosaics. Am also having trouble catching up because of multiple relocations and especially attending (and enjoying) our two granddaughters' volleyball practices and games-- two different teams and multiple sites!
Hello Eileen! Wonderful photos. The Barred Owl is great.
Oh how wonderful - just love the turtles - I've not seen one out in nature since I was a little kid in California - fabulous photos. And of course one of my favorites - the Heron. Wonderful mosaics. Have a grand weekend.
Something lovely to look at each way you turned. Happy Day.
Love seeing those amazing raptors. And I have the Great Blue's FL cousin in my post today! Happy weekend sweet lady! Hugs!
Hello, it's great series of photos. Turtles are very cute.

Hi Eileen, I love your slider turtles and the beautiful blooms. I have linked up quite late due to a busy day at work, but here I am. Thanks for hosting this meme. Have a great weekend. Jo
Nice shots, and the collages are a delight!
Hello Eileen, it's late but it's still Saturday! The turtles are sweet, and owls too, we just saw every owl Minnesota has at the State Fair and of course got the whole scoop on everything about them! They have the dearest sweetest eyes I think! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Helloo, Just saw your post. Amazing pics.
Greetings
Your post, and sharing, is always appreciated. I thank you, Eileen, for stopping by and adding your link this weekend at I'd Rather B Birdin'.

Looks like a great place and I will have to add this to my bucket list. Great photos Eileen, happy day to you and have a wonderful week
Hi Eileen, These are pretty photos from your visit. I especially love the turtles. I appreciate your visit this morning very much. Enjoy your day and the week ahead.
Looks like you had a nice sunny day for your walk. And, the wildflowers are beautiful! I can't imagine walking up to a wild hibiscus! Great pictures of the turtles, Eileen. Have a fantastic week!
There is nothing more fulfilling than seeing animals in nature. I love the pic of the turtles! Great shot. I have an issue catching them because they spook so easy.
Very unique and beautiful!
Hi Eileen, I'm trying hard to catch up with my bookmarked blogs after a few days spending all our time with little Addy May. Love your captures and your collage! Hope your weekend is going well.
Great shots of the Turtles..Love the Hawks..Hope you had a good weekend..
Lovely photographs Eileen, and I love how you've presented the mosaics too.
Have a great week.
All the best Jan
I like seeing those turtles soaking up some rays!
I'm too late for Sunday since I was hibernating yesterday but want to say how much I like the turtle on the log picture, I've tried to get that shot before and no luck. And of course, maybe you know how much I love herons. It's the only bird I'm fascinated by.
Love those turtles and all the beauty! So nice you get have a bit of a getaway!
I was so surprised and thought wait a minute am I in the right place...so beautiful what you have done Eileen to your blog presentation. I am always wanting to change mine up like I did for the first few years and then I think...but I like it this way.
I love those turtles and of course the Barred Owl is a real favorite of mine. Thank you for hosting for us dear friend~
Hi Eileen,
