I am sharing a mish-mash of critter photos. They are from my yard, my outings and some flash back photos.

1. I will never catch up with recent images, below the images are from Sept 5th our walk with Miney on the NCR trail in Parkton Maryland, some Pokeberries and a Robin. 

2. Sept 6th, my walk with Miney on the Prettyboy fire road, the deer hunters have arrived in the neighborhood, lots of mushrooms around the bottom of a tree and the ferns are starting to turn colors. 

"Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole."

3. Sept 8th, another walk with Miney on the neighborhood fire road. 

I used my Merlin app while walking Miney on the fire road, I heard and saw FOY Red-breasted Nuthatch. They are occasional winter visitors to my area. 

Sept 8th, the waning gibbous moon, one day after the full moon.

4. Sept 9th, the warblers have returned to my yard. They do love the berries on the Devil's Walking Stick also known as aralia spinosa. I believe the photos below are the Cape May Warbler. 

Sept 9th, we were headed to hubby's doctor appointment and stuck in road work traffic. I took a photo of a field of sunflowers next to the road.  Too far away but the Goldfinches were enjoying these flowers.

6. My flash-back images are of the Oystercatchers, they are an interesting looking shorebird. They have a stout red-orange bill that looks like a carrot to me. My photos below were taken on our Atlantic coast one from Cape May NJ and the other was seen a the Chincoteague Island NWR in Virginia. 

7. The Black Oystercatchers were seen on the Washington Coastline. 

8. The Eurasian Oystercatcher was seen on the Iceland coast. The bird has it's bill tucked in to the side and is not seen in my photos. 

Update on hubby, he is having surgery on Tuesday. They are creating a long term fistula on his arm for Hemodialysis. It is an outpatient surgery, I am hoping all goes well.
