It was great weather for a walk at the wetlands! The best part of the day for me was this pretty little bird. I'm never good at identifying these cute little bug eating birds. I spent about a half hour watching this one flit around from post to bush to tree. It was a very good photo subject :-) I really lean toward Phoebe for the ID, but I don't remember noticing the tail wagging it is suppose to do. Maybe it is something totally different?
I don't usually find a bird so willing to pose from every angle.
A fortunate shot as it took off.
And what would a walk at the wetlands be without a few turtle shots of the hundreds of turtles that live there.
They were filling every log they could find that was above the water level.
Can you count them, Rose? :-)
And this spider eating a damselfly was interesting?
Just found out that this is a Six-Spotted Fishing Spider. Makes sense since it was fishing in the creek.
Maybe with the weather getting nice, I will get out more and get some photos taken. We are in the process of trying to sell our house and downsize, but so far no takers. It is a frustrating process and a slow one. Getting out was a nice change of scenery.
