Sunny Wednesday

On a cold, rainy, foggy morning we ventured out to see how the Bald Eagle's were doing. I only saw one youngster, and he wouldn't turn to face me. This morning there were several Silvery Crescentspot ( at least I think it is ) flying around our driveway.


Two male Mallards napping on the creek behind our house.
The only decent Great Horned Owlet picture I got Monday. It just wasn't to be I guess. This guy turned away, and I never saw the parents.


A pretty waterfall.

You asked for it. Here they are again. You gotta love them.


Heading for the water.

I'm not sure what tomorrow will bring. Sun and warmer weather for sure. Have a great day everyone!

Watery Wednesday

Taking a ride to the Peninsula on Lake Erie to get pictures of the nesting Owl, I spotted a trio of Slider turtles basking in the afternoon sun on this old log.

Thanks to 2sweetnsaxy for this meme. Click Here to see more watery shots. I did manage to get some shots of the female Great Horned Owl sitting on the nest. See my header.. I wasn't able to see the mate anywhere.

I don't know if there are any chicks yet, and I couldn't get very close either because of the danger of these Owls attacking. We had gone yesterday morning, but the light just wasn't right, and we went back tonight before sunset.
