4. A lighter colored Northern Mockingbird on our Devil's Walking Stick. 

5. From a walk on our local fire road to the lake, we were watching one Slider Turtle sitting on a log.

6. While watching the first larger turtle, a smaller baby turtle crawled out of the water onto the log with the larger turtle. 

This is one of my shorter posts, next week I will share some critters and birds we saw during our latest getaway to the Letchworth State Park in New York.  Thanks always for sharing your post and for all the nice comments. 

PS,  an added extra. Our cute grandson 8 month birthday, a pumpkin for Halloween. He didn't eat the candy, it was just a prop.

Saturday's Critters # 410

 Hello and happy Saturday!

I have lots more photos from our getaway trip to Chincoteague Island Virginia. The Chincoteague Island NWR and National Seashore are favorite places for us to visit. These images are from our 2nd day of our 3 day trip.  There were lots of ponies and birds to see, the sunrises and the sunsets. 

1. Atlantic Ocean sunrise on the beach with the Sanderlings, Tricolored Heron, rabbit, Brown Pelicans with Gulls, juvenile Little Blue Herons with Tricolored Heron and Yellowlegs, Black Skimmer with Terns and Gulls, American Oystercatchers and a Green Heron.

BTW, if I am wrong with any of my bird id's I do not mind being corrected.  Please let me know. 

2. A mix of juvenile Little Blue herons, one Tricolored Heron, guessing at the Greater and Lesser Yellowlegs and one Great Egret. 

3. Double-crested Cormorant, Black Skimmers and I am guessing the larger Terns could be the Royal Tern at 20 inches. The Royal Tern at 20 inches looks bigger than the 18in Black Skimmer standing nearby.

4. Chincoteague ponies, some of the egrets had a pony ride.

5. Ponies, Egrets and on the far right is a Tricolored Heron  flying by.

6. Two American Oystercatcher with a Gull.

7. White Ibis, juvenile White Ibis and a Snowy Egret mixed in. I had to zoom in for a close look at all those pink legs.  

8. Chincoteague National Seashore beach, a mixed of White Ibis with various Egrets and herons, two deer standing near the wildlife drive and a sunset at Tom's Cove. 

9. Various White Ibis, Snowy Egret and why does the larger white bird have a dark colored bill? Is it a young Great Egret without the yellow bill?

10. Numerous White Ibis and various Snowy and Great Egrets.

11. The end of day 2, sunset at Tom's Cove Chincoteague Island NWR.

If you are ever in the area, I highly suggest visiting the Chincoteague Island National Wildlife refuge. I hope you enjoyed my post and photos. I am looking forward to seeing your critter post.
