Saturday's Critters #1

December 7, 2013

First I must say, I am not taking over Misty Dawn's Camera Critters .. I thought just maybe there are enough followers and animals lovers to go around for the both of us.. This is my first attempt at using the linky tool and starting my own meme..I hope it all goes smoothly. Please let me know if you are having any problems or need help.  I love animals of any kind and I am looking forward to seeing everyone's post.

 I hope to see everyone join in on the critter party and link up your blog sharing your cute critters. Any kind of critter will do. Also, I hope everyone will take some time and visit with some of the other bloggers linking up....... I will be a little busy today, it is my son's 21st birthday..... Time to celebrate.... I will be making time to visit everyone that links up.

I am so happy you joined in on  my Critter party....I hope to see you linking up again..

Bald Eagles

I am linking up Camera Critters and I'd-Rather-B-Birdin.

Happy Memorial Day weekend.  God Bless and Thank You to our Veterans and soldiers!

These are some shots of the Bald Eagles hubby and I saw last weekend in Delaware. Most of the Eagles were seen at Bombay Hook NWR and one on a field as we were driving to the wildlife refuge.

We saw this juvie Bald Eagle land on this field, it captured something to eat twice as we watched from the side of the road.

This eagle was perched along the side of the wildlife drive in Bombay Hook NWR.

Also seen at Bombay Hook this Eagle was sitting on top of one of the mounds where we usually see ducks or geese sitting.

A cloudy gray evening, this Bald Eagle was perched on a dead tree limb in Bombay Hook NWR.

A few more critters we saw during our visit to the wildlife refuge.

I hope you enjoyed my critter post. I hope everyone has a happy weekend. Thanks for stopping by and I always appreciate your comments. To see more beautiful photos and cute critters

Ruddy Turnstones

The Ruddy Turnsotne for my World Bird Wednesday and Nature Notes 

I am so happy to have my electric and cable back on, it is a terrible feeling to lose your electric. I hope everyone's electric is back on soon. We were lucky everything is fine here. Just a lot of downed trees in the reservoir and next to the road. I feel for the people who lost more, some were flooded, trees were down on their houses or cars and some lives were lost.

So, now on to a better subject the Ruddy Turnstone. For those who are not familiar with the Ruddy Turnstone it is a shorebird that nests mainly on the coastlines. They winter on beaches and rocky ocean coasts. The breeding adult's head is mentioned to have a harlequin look, ruddy pattern on its back and white and black on its bottom. These photos are from my archives and a previous visit to the Delaware shore.

This shot below has the Ruddy Turnstones, a Laughing Gull and a Dunlin.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my Ruddy Turnstones and to see
