It was such a nice day, perfect weather for a hike. We went to a local battlefield and hiked all over that place. The dogs were in heaven… they LOVE to hike and walk.
My wonderful hubby carried my camera backpack so I coud have both my lenses at hand and it also allowed us to carry water and such.
When we first got to the battlefield there were some painters their painting a pond…
In the pond was a goose swimming, it almost looked as if he was posing for the painters.
A little further up the way and in the river there were two families of geese… Mom, Dad, and babies.
The fields had beautiful flowers in them today all in full bloom.
Then we went from the fields and river to the mountain. There were so many planes today…
The pups took a rest when we got back from the mountain on one of the old house steps.
On the way out of the battlefield we saw a bird we have a difference of opinion on what it was… any ideas?
I hope you all had a beautiful weekend with lots of fun and beautiful weather. Have a blessed week 🙂
Your mystery bird is a Turkey Vulture.
Thats what I thought too… thanks 🙂
Thanks for the photo treat again.
So glad you enjoyed them 🙂
vulture would be my guess i always wanted to metal detect around some battlefields
My husband loves to metal detect, but says you can’t on the battlefields. Your’s is the second vulture guess I agree.
Great pictures! Beautiful countryside.
Thank you very much 🙂
What an incredible day you had – so many sights and sounds in one day – lovely photos. Thanks for sharing 😉
Thank’s for the great comment, I apperciate it. We did have a very nice day 🙂 Always glad to share.
Turkey Vulture. Why can’t you metal detect on battlefields?
I asked my hubby he says its a federal law, its considered a cemetary, and all artifacts are the goverments. He says there are heavy fines and possiable jail if caught.
Interesting, thanks!
No problem… hope it was helpful.
Definitely turkey vulture… good photo of it, by the way!
Thanks… I will let my hubby know I was right 😉
Yes, looks like a turkey vulture … we have quite a few of those around here! Nice blog and photos!
Thanks for the kind words and identification on the bird. My poor husband thought it was some sort of eagle and I tried to tell him a country girl knows about vultures.
Great photos.
Thank you I am so glad you enjoyed then 🙂
