Good morning!
AMPS 250 shooting .75u

Boomer ate all of his overnight fuds except for his +6.

Allen ate very well last night and left us a present in his lb.

Today on the agenda: some cleaning/sewing that I had planned for 2 days ago and then again yesterday

On Saturday I did my usual trip to Saunders Pond first thing in the morning. There have been Green Herons hanging out there this summer; two adults and three juveniles. They hang out in this one specific area usually and there are lots of trees/limbs coming out of the marshy area and the birds stay back from the path, making it difficult to get a good shot of any of them. But on Saturday the juveniles were more active; flying around and changing locations frequently, and I was able to get some decent shots. Attached is just one of the images I got!

 

Awesome shot !!! And great kitty report

 

So you have Green Herons and just down the road we have pigeons and Styrofoam. That's not fair Judy.

 

Great picture. Glad both kitties are eating well.

 

Oh you must have something more interesting than styrofoam!

 

Wow he's being stubborn. +3 229

 

Good reports on the boys, I've been watching the young hummingbirds draining my feeders in preparation for their long flight south. Orioles are gone and the Juncos will be here soon enuf .

 

Yup once the juncos appear you know winter is coming

 

U are so funny

Lookin' good here.
I've never seen a Green Heron. Beautiful bird.
Our hummingbirds have taken off, I think, but there will be migrants passing through, so I keep the feeders full.
We have Juncos all year.

Hope you had a good day cleaning (!) and sewing.

 

Work the increase Boomer!

Nice photo! I have only seen Blue Herons around our local lake. The green look smaller.

 

Well some cleaning got done More sewing got done though!
I had never seen Green Herons until last year. We also get Night Herons. I've never seen adult ones but last year there were two juveniles sitting on a log in one of our ponds. I photographed them not knowing what I was photographing!

 

These were babies that I photographed the other day and they were slouching lol. The Green Herons can stretch up and be quite tall although not as tall as the Great Blue Herons.

 

Well I haven't seen that colour in a while. +2.5 97
