I had the last five days off, I wish it was just starting! The weather was super. Our plans to go to D.C. for the cherry blossoms fell through so I relaxed and went walking everyday. Here are a few photos from my outings.
This old giant has been worn smooth and polished over Popup Linktime . These little Popup Linksprouts are growing in the compost nature has left on a stump.
 It was very tricky to get these Popup Linkthree  Popup Linkwater  Popup Linkshots  with Oakley and O'malley around.
The swamp is starting to
Popup Linkgreen up .
This forest Popup Linkfriend  was at the end of the walk today  good spotting by Wildman but my little camera was better at the close up today so I get the photo!
Last but not least my Popup Linklady on the nest  again! The male was busy chasing geese around the pond.I tried to capture some of the swan flying after the goose but I'm not talented enough for that kind of action....YET!

    I was waiting to hear the water. Great water shots. I hope you didn't get too close to that lady in the last one. They get testy when they are on thier nests.

    Can get too close to the swan or nest unless you wear hip waders and I've thought about getting some!!!!

    Great post, Birdie, and great shots. My picks are sprouts, all the water shots, green up, and the snake. I know that's about all of them, sorry, I can't help it. Sprouts is my absolute favorite because of the quality of the light... It looks bright but very soft.
