On May 6th, I did a hike and some birding while my hubby was taking the Historic Tour in Mammoth Cave.  I was able to capture some Warblers, Red-Bellied Woodpecker, Thrushes, Northern Flicker, a Black Rat Snake and a Rough Green Snake.

Around the Neighborhood

Happy Thankful Thursday! 

Photos from May 25-June 4th.

These are some images from our walks on the local fire road and to the lake. We had so many rainy cloudy days in a row, we were happy to finally see the sun shining. Time to get outside for a walk!

If you look closely you can see the beak and eye of an Acadian Flycatcher. This nest was seen just of the fire road. 

"Love your Mother Earth."

A pretty sky reflection on our lake. 

A Red-eyed Vireo seen off the fire road. 

I am pretty sure this is an Eastern Phoebe, they are known to have a yellowish belly.

Barred Owl sighted just off the fire road. 

A view of the fire road, it is lined with pretty ferns along the way. 

"Weeds are a flowers too, once you get to know them." Eeyore

A pretty weed, a pretty flower. 

We went off the fire road to walk to the lake and came across this big Black Rat Snake. 

Another fire road walk took us to a view of the Bald Eagles nest across the lake. Not the best shot, it was too far away but you can see two juvenile eagles on the nest.

Across the way, in one of those trees is the Bald Eagles nest.  

Another look at the lake before walking home.

"May your life be like a wildflower, grow freely in the beauty and joy of each day."  Native American Proverb

I am thankful for the rain but also for the sunshine.

I am thankful for each new day.
