A Rose is a rose....


There is simply the rose;
  it is perfect in every
    moment of it's existence.

Morning Walk

 Lake Erie


 Beautiful wild Phlox in full bloom.


 Morning song ...well, if you can call the noise that a Redwing Blackbird makes a song. I like it because it indicates that spring is just around the corner. Anyway, this guy was singing his heart out. 


 Now this little bird can sing. I guess that why he is called a Song Sparrow.....how sweet his sound.

Crack O' Dawn June


 We had a small and distracted group this morning. No one seemed to be paying attention.  Luckily the rain had stopped and the sun came out. The wild phlox were blooming everywhere (will post pics later) and we saw a few birds, a turtle, egrets and herons. No eagles today :-(

 Kingbird
Hey birdie, look at the camera
 Phragmites, still there. They were sprayed in the fall and were supposed to be burned this spring but someone dropped the ball and the burning never happened. They are re-sprotting everywhere.
