Walk to the lake

I am linking up  with That's My World  and Watery Wednesday . These are some photos from yesterday's walk with my hubby to the nearby lake and some from my backyard. The lake has a thin layer of ice and is starting to melt quickly now.










These are some shots of Black Vultures and Turkey Vultures flying around my yard and a pretty Pine Warbler and a gorgeous sunset to end the day.






I hope you enjoyed my photos please visit that's My World and Watery Wednesday.  Thanks for stopping by and thanks to the great host of the two memes.

Egret tree

My camera critters, to see more critters visit our host Misty Dawn at Camera Critters.  Thanks Misty Dawn.





If you haven't been able to tell by now, I love birds and will go birding any chance I can get. These photos are from my archives but I thought they would be good for skywatch.  They were taken at Bombay Hook in Delaware in August. Hubby and I took a walk on one of the trails and we noticed this Egret tree. It was an amazing sight, there were so many Egrets and the sky was mostly blue.

A closer shot



Still closer



More info on the Egrets, they are waders, they nest in colonies in either trees or reedbeds. They live in wetlands, mudflats, marshes or swamps.They are usually seen elegantly posed along streams or ponds looking for frogs or fish.

Thanks for stopping by my blog and checking out my skywatch. To see more great Skywatch photos from all over go to  Skywatch Friday
