 Welcome to Saturday's Critters!

Hello and happy Saturday!   Happy Earth Day!  

 If you love all God's creatures like I do and also like to blog about them and take critter photos this is where you can share your critter post. 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!

These images are from our last morning in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. I have mish mash of birds photos and an iguana seen at our resort.  I love to travel and see new places, but the last travel day is not fun. The airports can be crowded and we spent 5 hours in the Houston Hobby airport going through the US immigrations and customs and then waiting for our last flight home. 

1.  Sightings from our last morning at the resort in Mexico, top row are the  Whimbrel and Sandpiper. Second Row are two different Orioles, the last row are the Frigatebirds, Oriole and Rock Pigeons.

Click on images for better viewing!

2. These two Orioles were seen from our balcony , the photos shows more of their backs, could the be the Streaked-back Orioles?

This Oriole was hanging out in the same trees as the two Orioles above. This bird is missing the white bars on the wings, possibly a young Oriole or female? 

3. This looks like the Orchard Oriole, the dark head and rust colored body. 

4. The Whimbrel was hanging out on the beach every day, close to the Sandpiper I am showing below. 

5.  The next two photos are the same bird, we saw it on the beach every morning. I was tossed between a Willet or a Sandpiper. 

6. Hubby and I on most mornings would sit on the beach at our resort and watch the birds, whales and dolphins. Sometimes they put on a great show.  

7. Dolphins playing around in the bay right in front of our resort. 

8. The whales were splishing and splashing, the dolphins were closer to the people kayaking. 

9.  Humpback Whale flapping it's long fin.  

10. We did not see many Iguanas during our stay in Mexico, this was one of two that we saw at the resort. 

11.  An extra from our birding tour on March 7th, I missed sharing a couple of Warblers we saw the Nashville Warbler on the left and a lifer the Lucy's Warbler and the right.  The Nashville Warbler I have seen in the fall in my yard eating berries.
