Osprey Family



An osprey family is nesting next to the river too. This morning, I saw the adult osprey coming and going and managed to get some shots of that.
Walking on the River Trail


I have been walking fairly often in the morning along the riverside trail. Most mornings, I see three or even four blue herons. I saw this heron right next to the trail just below the old bridge.


I love redwing blackbirds for the splash of colour on their wings.


This morning, I saw some bullfrogs looking like they were lying on the water -- I don't know how they do it!
Scaring What?

I saw this scarecrow by the water's edge while on a walk about a month ago (high time I did some more pictures!). Just what he is scaring, I'm not sure. Gulls, maybe?
