Viewing nature with Eileen

I am linking up with Skywatch Friday  and Good Fences
I hope you can join in on the fun and share your fence scenes and pretty skies.

For this week's Good Fence and Skywatch Friday memes I am sharing some local birds seen around the local river and our lake. Also, some morning glories and a few of Hubby's sky shots.

I am not sure why but I noticed on different blogger's Feedjit, the live traffic feed claims I am from Sugarland Texas. Sugarland Texas is 1,455 miles or 2341 KM from Maryland. I am pretty sure it used to say I was from Freeland Maryland. So please do not believe all that you read it is not true. Hubby and I did not move to Texas. I would like to spend my retirement in a new state but, Texas is not in the running. I assume for some reason my computer or blogger is giving a wrong location and I have no idea how to fix it.

These are some birds we saw while on one of our local walks around the neighborhood & lake. The top row is the Louisiana Waterthrush, possibly an Eastern Phoebe and a juvenile House Finch.


For Tex's Good Fences..I am sharing the morning glories growing on our fence, that is until a ground hog comes along and mows them down. :(


A Swallowtail on our Purple Coneflowers and for another fence entry, you can see our blur of our fence in the background.



These are Hubby's shots of the sunset at the lake.




Later the colors turned a little more pinkish, hubby captured beautiful reflections. I hope you enjoyed my hodgepodge of images. Thanks for stopping by and for all the nice comments.

Hello, I am linking up with Mosaic Monday and Our World Tuesday

These shots were all taken earlier today Sept. 23 just walking around my yard. I still have some flowers blooming. There was one waterlily, the morning glories, and just one Stella D'oro lily. And just because they attract the warblers the pokeberry, we are letting the pokeberry grow close to our deck.


Above is my warbler attracting pokeberry, the female hummer is still here, my latest new yardbird the Black-throated Green Warbler, waterlily.



My newest yardbird the Black-throated Green Warbler, it is a beautiful warbler.


My pretty female Hummingbird.

I forget what this plant is called, but it has these pretty pink blooms.


Above is one Stella D'oro lily, a view of my side yard, chickadee, impatiens and morning glories.

My cute chickadee at one of my popular birdfeeders.


Just one pretty Stella D'oro lily decided to bloom for the end of summer.


We recently had to remove a pine tree it was a little TOO close to the house. During a heavy snowstorm the branches were knocking up against our bedroom wall. Just the sound was scary to hear, much the thought of  large branch crashing onto our roof.


My newest warbler yardbird is so pretty, I have to show another shot of him.
