Snowy Egret

May 6, 2010

While we were in Florida we stayed at a condo with a small lake outside our windows. It was fun to watch the water birds looking for a snack or just gliding around on the lake.

This is one of my favorite shots. It’s a Snowy Egret taking flight.

I love watching egrets and herons and cranes and ducks and geese and just all those swimming birds!

We've got a number of hens sitting on eggs. I've heard peeping under one hen for a couple of days now. This morning I checked, and she was gone, but there were 6 little chicken babies left behind. Three were in the nest still . . . The other three had crawled over into another section, beside another sitting hen. . . I saw the hen ...

Rural Ramblings . . .

Welcome ya’ll!

We’re living the country life and hobby farming in the southeastern U.S.

We presently have chickens, turkeys and guinea fowl. To keep all the other critters safe, there’s a Maremma sheepdog and English Shepherd dog here as well!

I love to take pictures so there are lots of images to go with the stories! Not just of the farm critters, but wildlife and nature shots too. Plus some pictures from far afield now and then, when we do a tad of traveling. So sit down and visit a spell!
