I do love my walks with nature, Miney and my hubby. Below are images from our local fire road trails, the NCR bike trail and I am sharing some of the bird that my Merlin App picked up on our walks.
Click on images for better viewing.
1. Our front lawn with the blooming rhododendrons and the red maples and some tall pine trees. Miney was looking for the bunnies.
Merlin picked up the sounds of 27 birds on my Prettyboy walk with Miney.
2. On this day we drove to the local Hemlock Gorge trail. We saw lots of the Dames Rocket blooms.
I am not sure if this is a Spotted Sandpiper or the Solitary Sandpiper?
3. The wildflowers were pretty seen along the Hemlock Gorge trail.
The Gunpowder River at Hemlock Gorge.
4. My morning walk with Miney, on the local fire road at Prettyboy. The Siberian Iris in our yard are looking pretty.
5. The NCR trail is one of our favorites for walking. Pretty wildflowers and wild azaleas, Miney and the Eastern Towhee, a Gray Catbird and views of the river.
I seem to be able to find the female Eastern Towhee, they tend to singing loudly.
Birds heard on my Merlin App while walking on the NCR trail in Parkton.
6. A view of the rail to trail called NCR trail in Parkton Maryland.

7. Another day, another walk with Miney on the local fire road at Prettyboy!.

Saw plenty of wild flowers on our daily walk around Rhein river...but it's so darn HOT that I hardly paid any attention to them...your APP. has picked so many different kinds of birds...
Interesting information and lovely place for birding!
Have a great weekend!
What a cutie Sophie is! Happy early birthday to her! Beautiful shots from the trails. Love the color of your Rhoddy!
Happy Birthday 🎂 🥳 to Sophie. Eileen, your photos are amazing and beautiful. And Miney is adorable as always. Have a wonderful weekend. 😊
Good morning, dear Blogfriend Eileen! Walking with you and Minnie along the different ways is always a pleasure. Today I like especially the path on the river.
...and don't forget: Best wishes for the birthday of sweet Sophie too ❤️
Thank you for sharing and for hosting. Have a wonderful week ahead. Greetings by Heidrun
Sweet photos with your grandy, Happy Second Birthday Sophie! Cute photo of Miney looking for the bunnies and on the trail. Fascinating how many birds you hear. Thank you for taking us on this walk. Always great to see all the lovely sights. Have a great weekend!
Hello Eileen,
Your photos are always so nice to see. All the birds and nature at your place are so lovely. Miney is a beautiful dog, and Sophie is so sweet.
Take care, and enjoy your weekend!

My word Eileen... the most birds together I ever got on Merlin (yet) has been eight... am astounded by how many you get! Once again I have enjoyed 'walking' with you and Miney on those pretty trails. YAM xx
Hello Eileen,
You heard so many birds while walking, amazing.
I’ve been inside today and yesterday because of the extreme heat here, I’ve never experienced it this bad before.
I think the Siberian irises in your garden are beautiful.
You have an adorable granddaughter, happy birthday in advance.
I wish you a lovely weekend.
All the best, Irma
Beautiful flowers, I love this time of the year. And that app is amazing! Wonder what it would detect here.. pigeons, raven, sparrows, I think that´s it! But maybe at least different kinds of sparrows? Have a great Saturday!
Picking up 27 birds on Merlin is amazing! Your wild blooms look gorgeous. Love the adorable bonus photos.
Happy birthday little cutie. 🎂🎂🎂
