Started Mother's Day by taking a long walk on the beach. Here is a fish that isn't celebrating. Don't know what kind of fish this is. Any ideas?At the southern part of the island the least terns are still busy taking over the landscape.
I think this is a Wilson's plover.
Love how this oystercatcher is dominating the sand dune.
And here is some kind of sandpiper... I can't tell them apart.
This trio of pelicans was out fishing.
On the way home I stopped at a nearby pond and this green heron was grooming.
This green heron is nesting in the shrubs.
And an Eastern Bluebird put in an appearance.
Here is Lacey waiting in the upstairs window.
She ran downstairs and pushed Buddy out of the downstairs window.
John, Jess, and Dave made dinner for me at John & Jess's house. This is the first time in 5 years that I have been able to celebrate Mother's Day with my kids.
Two new flowers for my deck!
My deck is my "garden/yard".
And the southern magnolias are blooming!
I can't tell you how many times I've returned to this page just to gaze at and zoom in on the green heron. I've never seen one before! I'm admiring the colors and detail in the feathers (which you caught with such clarity.) Great post.
