The minute I saw who posted the Great Blue Heron views, I knew I'd see some spectacular views. I was right. No. 3 is awesome. Thanks for sharing these, Regis.

Thank you Annie. Rural landscapes is my favorite field. I had plenty of city life in my young(er) days, but I now live in the slow lane in a little country town, & my idea of a good time is poking around 'in the bush' on my own, completely disconnected from reality, lol.

A pleasing set of country scenics, Earl. A leisurely drive on back roads provides lots of photo ops and you did an excellent job
capturing some of what's out there.
Having a problem sending thumbs-up. Wanted to send 4 of them.

I often just poke around back roads, occasionally taking pics from the side of the road. Hope you enjoy these.

The Blackburnian Warbler migrates through my area in the first part of May and then again in the Fall...the trick is to find them about the second week when they're singing gives them away and makes them easier to locate. They are very small and usually found at the tops of trees...and they never seem to stop moving

Annie, Thanks for looking and you lovely comment. Yes, I plan to go everyday and check the status. Once all the eggs have been laid, which can take 2-3 weeks, 9which my sense they have0they will all be incubated (ie sat on to start the growth process) at the same time with hatching usually 42 days (6 weeks) later.
You will be invited to the baby naming party.

It will be an exciting 'event!' 😤 I consider it an honor to help name one of the babies!

The new leaves are just beginning to develop so there isn't much cover for the birds.
A great time to shoot birds in trees, but it won't last.
