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

Another post of mish-mash images, from our local walks. Of course I have some back yard birds and butterflies. Is it just me or are Saturdays or any day rolling around pretty fast?  Between dialysis for hubby three times a week and doctor and test appointments, they go even faster. I wish I could slow time down.  

Click on images for better viewing.

1. A walk with Miney on the local Prettyboy fire road.  The trail looks familiar I am sure, it is one of my favorite local walks. The deer bow hunting has started in the reservoir watershed, I am kind of leery walking on the trail when I see lots of trucks parked nearby. 

2. Merlin app birds heard during my walk with Miney.

I've been seeing the Gray Catbird in my yard, I think they are enjoying the various berries. 

3. The Carolina Wren is one of my year round back yard birds.  

4. Another visit with our son and his family, Pop-pop loves some hugs from our grandsons. Our son is still finishing up work on the deck he built on the back of his home. 

5. Google search is saying the butterfly below is called the Painted Lady Butterfly. It has the white spots on the tips of their wings. 

6. I created a mosaic of images from my walk with Miney to the Prettyboy reservoir. 

A large flock of geese were pecking away at the grass and mud.  

7. The Merlin app birds heard during our walk to the Prettyboy Reservoir. You can see the lake is more like a stream, we need rain.  

8. Below the American Robin is one of the common birds seen in my area. 

9. The Prettyboy Reservoir is dry in a lot of spots, it is mostly grass, weeds and mud now.
