Birds, Squirrels, n Turtles for an ibilover Birthday . . .
Happy belated Birthday to 
ibilover!!! Here is your promised spam. A collection of some of the fauna I saw this year around Greenbelt Lake:
A pair of wood ducks in the early spring.
Wood duck mom and ducklings in summer.
Mallard couple having a conversation.
A flycatcher otherwise known as a phoebe.
. . . as in "a quizzical look" . . .
Cardinal decides and away he goes.
Gray squirrel rampant. "Where's Rocky?"
Gray squirrel recumbent.
Sunbathing red eared slider. "Where's Fred?"
Painted turtle/slider perhaps? I'm not sure. Her shell was a good 10" - 12". I think she was digging a hole to lay eggs. Much too exposed a spot. I hope she made out OK.
Ready for her close-up. "Damned paparazzi!"
Big ole snapper.
Snapper arises form their prehistoric depths.
We be 3 sliders hanging out. Make a move toward us and "whoosh!" we're gone.
Great Egret surveying their domain.
And we interrupt this tour around Greenbelt Lake for a pic from Bohemian Weasel for the Frodo/Sam win!
I hope you had an excellent birthday adventure along the overway in NYC and have a great birthday weekend! *hugs*
