"In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks." John Muir

These are my nature walks with hubby and Miney, these images are from various parks we visited. Hubby and I were able to visit some of our Maryland State Parks, Gunpowder State Park, North Point State Park in Baltimore County and the Susquehanna River State Park and Conowingo Dam. 

1. We walked the Black Marsh Trail at North Point State Park.  We saw a few Osprey, Eastern Phoebes and the Belted Kingfisher.  

2. At the end of the Black Marsh trail we had a good view of the Chesapeake Bay.  I had a good view of the Eastern Bluebird and an American Goldfinch. 

3. We walked on the NCR trail which is part of the Gunpowder State Park. 

4. Another day and another walk on the local NCR bike trail. 

On the NCR trail my Merlin app was picking up the sounds of some winter birds like the Golden-crowned Kinglet and the Ruby-crowned Kinglet. 

5. It was too early to see the Eagles migrating, that usually happens later in November.  We did see a few Bald Eagles, Double-crested Cormorants and the Great Blue Herons. 

Near the fishing pier at Conowingo Dam they have a pretty garden with a Bald Eagle sculpture. 

6. The Black Vultures are still plentiful near the Conowingo Dam and the Susquehanna River.

I can usually always see the Great Blue Herons along the Susquehanna River.  

7. Flashback photos are of various Kingfishers, seen here in the USA, Belize and Costa Rica. 

First I am sharing the male and female Belted Kingfishers seen in the USA.

8. The Amazon Kingfisher was seen in Costa Rica. 

The Green Kingfisher was seen in both Costa Rica and Belize. 

The Ringed Kingfisher was seen in both Costa Rica and Belize.
