Lovely peaceful shots Gail. Words fail me too when there is so much beauty to behold and enjoy.
ah, Gail ~ thank you for these beautifu images today. So very welcome . . .
Great post, well done!
Happy WBW!
Love that Little Blue's display, and such peaceful images.
Oh Gail! All of these photos are WONDERFUL, PERFECT AND SO o o o YOU! I love them all. Glad you know Sandie (she is the best!) and I DON'T KNOW why I dreamed that other than I would love to meet her and the other two, plus you and many other gals I talk to each day! Blogging is amazing!!!! We need to meet!
I always love a good doggy photo. He looks so peaceful and contemplative.
That lovely color is so vibrant on the heron - beautiful catch!
Baby egrets protected by mama - you had a wonderful birding day. :)
Loved all your candid shots as well. Make me want to be there.
The little blue herons are so colourful! I had no idea what they were when I first saw your photos. And your photo of the Carolina chickadee is outstanding. I also like your candid shots very much.
Your blog is such a feast of nature. Love the blue heron.
Yes....many prayers for our Country.
The state of Louisiana is really very pretty...gorgeous birds, love the moss hanging in the trees and cypress tree is just one of my favs. Looks like your outing was very relaxing and enjoyable...
Great chickadee photo...
great shots! i love that blue bird :)
Fab shots Gail! Love the purple on that heron, and the dog shot is sweet!
Fantastic shots! Love that blue heron.
It's a fascinating locale, Gail! So different from what I'm accustomed to, of course. The young blue heron has a purple head? These are such great shots...wonderful commentary on your visit.
Breathtaking shots Gail! Especially love the last one! I am from Boston area and knew that some of my relatives would be there yesterday! My heart and soul go out to the families who lost so much!
Oh, the color! Love the blue heron!
What an amazing shot of the carolina chicadee...I hear one in my back yard right now....They are so cute.....
The blue heron is odd and beautiful at the same time...He looks like a hard working fellow...Getting ready for Mama I guess.....
Love all your shots...You certainly keep us in beautiful nature shots...
That Chickadee shot is amazing and enjoyed your blog.Have a great day!

What a lovely set of pictures, I love the Herons and the Egrets, but the Carolina Chickadee wins the day.
Take care Gordon.

Great captures! That Chickadee shot is a doozy!
no words necessary, just beautiful images to remind us all of what a beautiful world we live in can be!
It looks like a beautiful place to visit and to watch birds. The colors on the Little Blue Heron are especially great.
That IS a neat picture of the dog. I can see why you like it. Love the blue heron pictures. What a colorful bird. But I have to vote for the chickadee as my favorite of the day. That shot is just magical.
Great series, Gail! My favorite is the Little Blue and the cute dog! Beautiful photos!
AHHHHHMAAAAZZZZING PHOTOS !!
Love the dog, love the chickadee...looks like a great day for some fishin'...
It looks like you are having such wonderful weather, Gail! Love the heron. I never realized they had so much purple in them.
Beautiful images...we need to be reminded about how beautiful our world is. So are most people. We can't let the few evil ones beat us down.
You were lucky enough to get the LBH and it's head feathers all tufted out in display!!! Pretty...
Great day had, I can tell.
At least no alligators comin' after you here!!! In this part.
Wow - what a beautiful day, Gail!
The blue heron's colour is truly amazing and the shot of the chickadee? Marvelous! 'Queen Tanya' looks a little pooped however.
My heart is with yours today, in Boston.
WOW the Blue Heron is the coolest colour. Gail your photos continue to bring me happiness. Thank you Hug B
such beautiful plumage on the little blue heron in the first photo... I love seeing the world through blogging, what a treat!
Looks like summer here..I adore the little blue heron.
Some great catches - I liked the blue heron and the chickadee. sandie
Super shots. Love the Egret and the dog shots. Looks like it was a great day.
What a wonderful set of images, Gail. My favourite is the Carolina Chickadee - so artistic!. However, my favourite bird has to be the Little Blue Heron - an absolute stunner!! Thank you for sharing.
It looks like a very pleasant time all round. Love your last photo- - amazing action shot.
What beautiful herons and egrets!! I wish we had more water birds here in my neck of the woods.
Wow! What a collection. It is hard to pick a favorite. The purple wings are magical. And fluffy baby egrets. Oh my.
Fabulous collection here, Gail. The sleepy pooch on the boat is wonderful as are the last two shots.
Yes you have me smiling once again. I just love these shots. That dog in the boat is so sweet. LOVE that shot..
