Link up your post and share your critters, join in with my critter party ! You can share any kind of critters the real ones, pretend ones, statues and paintings, a new or old post!
1. One of our morning walks with the grand-dogs to the lake, the Eastern Bluebird was the only bird I was able to get some photos.
2. The grand-dogs are enjoying their walks, they are definitely getting a lot more exercise while staying at their home away from home.
3. The fire road trail to the lake still has some snow and ice.
4. Winnie the Corgi enjoys the walk, so many new smells.
5. An Eastern Bluebird collage, I saw a little flock of Bluebirds near the lake.
6. The temperature during our walk was in the low 30's, I stopped long enough to take some photos of the dogs and the Bluebirds.
7. I see something down there, maybe a bug to eat.
8. The Male Eastern Bluebird looking beautiful.
Thank you for sharing your critters and post!

ReplyDeleteThis is delightful, Eileen - walks with dogs have an added interest (and distraction!) and to have a single-bird focus brings something extra somehow... YAM xx
Thank you Yam! We are happy to see the dogs happy to go on the walks, one of their favorite things to do.
DeleteTake care, have a happy weekend!

Thank you Marit!
DeleteTake care, have a happy weekend!
Hello Eileen, :=) The Eastern Bluebird is so beautiful, an absolute joy to see. If I had seen this gorgeous bird, and it was the only bird sighting of the day, but I never will, unless it's on another blog, I would have returned home a happy bunny. Your Grand dogs are getting loads of exercise whilst staying with you. It's the perfect environment for them.
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting Eileen, and have a happy weekend.
Thank you Sonjia! Yes, I was happy too, to see the Bluebird. They are one of my many favorite birds.
DeleteThe dogs are happy to go on walks with us.
Take care, have a happy weekend!

ReplyDeleteThank you Bill! We all enjoy our walks, especially the dogs.
DeleteTake care, have a happy weekend!
A few Eastern Bluebirds spend the winter here, but the main cohort will being to return next month. Something to look forward to!
ReplyDeleteThank you David!
DeleteI hope to see some Bluebirds using my birdhouses this year.
Take care, have a happy weekend!
Don't apologize for "only" bluebird images. We did not have them in south Florida (although attempts have been made to reintroduce them). Now that we have relocated to Connecticut, we are delighted to have them. I also featured them in my blog this week.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ken! I do love seeing the Bluebirds, they are always a treat to see.
DeleteTake care, enjoy your weekend!
It's lovely seeing your birds, knowing they will move back north. As David says, something to look forward to on these dreary days.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting. Have a great weekend. I can tell you are enjoying grandpup sitting!
Thank you Jenn! The dogs do enjoy the walks, they are getting lots more exercise living with us right now.
DeleteTake care, enjoy your weekend!
Lovely capture on the bluebird and the dogs must have got a good outing and walking along the woods. And for the cold and icy weather, some kind of warm-up is needed; I hope you guys enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend
Thank you Jeevan!
DeleteI appreciate the comment and visit.
Have a great day and new week ahead.
Lovely photos, Eileen. I particularly like the last one of the bluebird!
ReplyDeleteThank you Nick!
DeleteThat is one of my favorite Bluebird photos.
Take care, enjoy your new week!
Those bluebirds are fabulous. And your sweet dogs look like they're having a wonderful time. What a good group of critters! Happy week!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jeanie! Our granddogs are super excited to go on daily walks.
DeleteTake care, have a happy weekend!
Loved the last one the best!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the comment and visit.

ReplyDeletethe pups are so sweet, i know you enjoy having them!! have a great week, today is suppose to be warmer and many thanks for hosting!!
Thank you Debbie! I do think hubby and I will be getting more exercise with the dogs here, more walks.

ReplyDeleteThank you Sandra!

The little bluebirds are so adorable and of course your granddogs are too! Have a great weekend Eileen! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Martha!
DeleteTake care, have a happy weekend!
Great shots of bluebirds...about my favorite bird of all! I have trouble capturing them, they seem to skitter around too fast for this phone photographer! Your granddogs are so cute! I'm sure they enjoy your walk! Today is not as warm or sunny as yesterday but may get to 59 F. So I am determined to walk again! If you can do it in the 30s I sure can do it in the 50s. If my feet behave that is! No complaining, it's good for them. Thanks for comments on my blog. Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteThank you Barbara! The Bluebirds are one of my favorites too.
DeleteWe are warmer today but it could snow tomorrow and it will be colder.
Take care, have a happy weekend!
I love your walks with the dogs, and what a bunch of shots of the bluebirds you captured.
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting!!
Thank you Alan! We do enjoy taking the dogs for their walks.
DeleteTake care, have a happy weekend!
Thank you for hosting, Eileen! As usual your photos are wodnerful.
ReplyDeleteThanks again Nick!
DeleteEnjoy your day!
Blue birds are a good sign of spring. Nice to see that you have so many bluebirds.
ReplyDeleteThank you Red!
DeleteWe are lucky to see the Bluebirds here year round.
Have a great weekend!
Good Afternoon Eileen. You agree very generous with your time in looking after the granddogs. I suspect that your walks are taken quite slowly when there are so many go things to sniff. Still, it gives you chance to stop and take lots of photos of those beautiful bluebirds. I'm hoping for dy sunnier weather for both of us soon
ReplyDeleteThank you Phil! Having the dogs here is fun, we like taking them for walks. I do miss be able to take off and go on our overnights trips and day trips. I hope you get some nice dry sunny weather. Happy Birding, enjoy your weekend.
DeleteThat Easter Bluebird is so cute! Love the fluff. What a great name for a Corgi, Winnie! Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteThank you Ellen!
DeleteWinnie is a cute dog, I like her name too.
Take care, have a happy weekend!

The Bluebird is among the sweetest and cutest of birds! You got so many wonderful photos of it, Eileen. We had more snow last night and had our shoveling work out this morning...lol Have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteThank you Pat!
DeleteWe may have to shovel snow tomorrow, hopefully not too much.
Have a great weekend!
Your granddogs are so cute, dear Eileen! And the pretty bird with the blue head is a wonderful sighting! I didn't know about the Eastern Bluebird but he is really looking very beautiful. Thanks for the nice walk :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend and all the best
