Welcome to Saturday's Critters!

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

If you love all God's creatures like I do and also like to blog about them and take critter photos this is where you can share your critter post. Link up your post and share your critters, join in with my critter party ! You can share any kind of critters the real ones, pretend ones, statues and paintings, a new or old post!

These are photos from our short trip to Ocean City, Md and Assateague Nat'l Seashore.  I love seeing the wild ponies, we had some great sightings of the ponies and we also saw various birds.

We saw some of the horses while driving thru the campground. One horse walked up to the van's window, I think it was looking for food. We did not see it being fed, that is against the rules.

The Yellow-rumped Warblers were everywhere on the Assateague Island.

The Sanderlings were on the beach at Assateague.

Happy Birthday to me! I hope you will join in with your critters and celebrate my birthday with me. I am sharing more photos from our week at my sister's place. We walked on the beach just about every day. Below are some Sanderlings foraging for food in the surf.

Below are three different bird species, from left to right are the Black-bellied Plover, Willet and a Ruddy Turnstone.

The Ruddy Turnstones can usually be found near the rock jetty.

Not the clearest shot, but I zoomed in on the juvenile Black-bellied Plover. It is a cute bird.

I appreciate and thank everyone who links up their post and for all the wonderful comments! I hope you enjoy my post and photos too!

Sunset Beach, NC

Hello,

We split up our long drive home from Florida by stopping to see my sister's new home near Sunset Beach, North Carolina. While we were there for two nights we were able to visit the Sunset Beach and the Vereen Nature Park in Little River, NC.

The first two mosaic's are images of Sunset beach, North Carolina.

Top left photo is one of the turtle nest on the beach, fishing pier, pretty clouds and sky shots. 

 A group of Brown Pelican flying by.

The next two mosaics were from our visit to the Sunset Beach and the  Vereen Nature & Memorial Park located in Little River, North Carolina. I found a cute Sea Turtle sand sculpture and a Sanderling on the beach.

 Jet skis on the Little River.

While walking on the Vereen boardwalk trail we saw the Wood Stock, Great Egrets, Great Blue Heron and lots of Fiddler Crabs.

Some scenes from our walk on the trail at the nature park.

We happened to see this Wood Stork below fly in and land in a tree.

I hope you enjoyed my post and photos. Thanks for visiting and as always thank you for the nice comments.  Have a great day and new week ahead!

Here is my list of memes for the week, I hope you can check one or some of these fun memes and the participants post.
