Wow a place so full of nature close enough to walk to is awesome! I loved seeing all the animals like this.
ReplyDeleteHope that today was just as special for you too!

What a beautiful place to go for a daily walk. I love it. The deer photos are wonderful and I know exactly how you feel when you see one. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you got out and about and got some fresh air! I love the duck pictures! Baby ducks are so sweet and I love how the mama duck calls the shots. That is great that you were able to take in an outdoor musical production, too!
ReplyDeleteI went to Raleigh for the weekend to visit a blog friend and I had a great time!
Gotta love those bright duck feet - as if she wanted a little pizzaz! Rick is getting tan - how many miles did he do? We're in the city. Bob's 90 year old Dad is visiting from FL. Hot here too.
ReplyDeleteNever knew that a duck's feet could glow like that. What a beautiful walk you had. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteLooks like the best kind of weekend... so glad the heat & humidity didn't deter you from enjoying it all.
ReplyDeleteAround here, the young ducks are terrorizing the older ones, flashing gang signs as they pass each other in the pasture. No scapes yet, but peas are beginning to arrive in abundance.
Looks like a very pleasant and low key week-end.
ReplyDeleteOh, not that's a lovely weekend... And love all the flora & fauna. Especially the kitty-cat variety. ;o) Happy Days, Jeanie ((HUGS)) P.S. did you make the quilt on the bed? PRETTY!
ReplyDeletethe animals are interesting.visit http://www.unn.edu.ng
ReplyDeleteOhhh Lizzie! What a beautiful bellah you have :-)
ReplyDeleteThe deer pics are great. It looks like it was as interested in you as you were in the deer.
ReplyDeleteI love the duck family dynamics and the red feet are stunning.
It looks like Lizzie had a relaxing weekend also. :)
Amazing shots! Made my BP drop just browsing along with you. Loved the deer.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice day!
ReplyDeleteWe have ducks on a new pond in a city park nearby. Your duck pics are way better than mine! :-)
Love the heron, too. Those wispy feathers over his back.....
And the deer.....
Thanks for sharing your day with us!
Now this just sounds like a perfect and peaceful weekend. Love seeing your nature nearby and always your Lizzie.
ReplyDeleteWonderful wildlife pictures! You remind me that there are a few places here that I could walk and see at least a few wild things. Putting it on my to-do-list for tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteI tried to post a comment a minute ago, but I did something wrong. I think I've figured it out.
ReplyDeleteI love this post. Your description and pictures made me feel so tranquil. We're at Dad's for a couple of days, and you've inspired me to go down to the creek and see what's going on. Lovely post, Jeanie.
I read this post with a big smile on my face. Wonderful and relaxing :)
ReplyDeleteThe little ducklings are adorable!
ReplyDeleteLove the ducklings and the lovely settings, but Lizzie stole my heart!
ReplyDeleteBises,
Genie
You know how I am about the ducks and herons, but what a treat to see a deer, too. I saw some on my trip to the hill country, but they're pretty common up there. What was unusual was the wild turkeys!
ReplyDeleteOf course my favorite photo is of Lizzie. That's summertime, for sure!
The best news around here is that I think I've found the perfect cat-sitter for Dixie. I'll tell you about it later, but here's the bottom line - it only took Dixie a half-hour to get out from under the bed when I got home. This is progress, especially since she didn't hiss or swat - or turn her back!
An insight into a really lovely weekend! What beautiful surroundings. We city dwellers miss a lot in not being able to come across nature "unawares"
