I think I may have seen a bald eagle a week or so flying over the river I live near. What a sight, you being able to get so close (comparatively).It's amazing seeing your nest picture, and I enjoyed the lineup of turtles. Must be fun to watch river traffic - something we don't get to see. And - redbuds! We are a long way from redbuds.
ReplyDeleteThat is probably the last river traffic I will be able to see for awhile. We are under orders for every one to stay on their own property unless going for food or medical reasons, and the TN River is an hour's drive from where I live. Can't claim I am going grocery shopping that far away!
DeleteWhat a wonderful mix of spring feelings! I think that stunning pink shrub does not grow in Finland.
ReplyDeleteI love how redbuds just pop in the grey-brown woods, we don't have as many pines and spruces in this valley. Soon everything will turn green. And we'll probably have a bit of green fuzz on parts of us from sitting around vegetating!
ReplyDeleteAs always, the turtles are my favourite.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo of the redbud blooms. Those huge barges look too big for the river... like they might scrape bottom!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing the turtles! And that redbud tree.
ReplyDeleteRivers, lakes and oceans are a great way to transport things, especially heavy ones. Our lake is used to transport large booms of logs cut around it's shoreline. The ocean takes those logs and moves them south to Vancouver mills and to transport via ship abroad. - Margy
ReplyDeleteWow, you got a lot of stuff going there. Love the Eagle nest--that about all I ever get---by the time the babes are born the leaves have filled out the trees. Grrr.
ReplyDeleteLove the Redbud too. They don't bloom well here

ReplyDeleteHello. Beautiful spring photos. Photo of Bald eagle is awesome. Stay healthy.
ReplyDeleteHello, love the river scene and tugboat. The Redbud is one of my favorite trees, love the blossoms. Cute capture of the turtles. The Eagle on the nest is a great shot. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, stay safe! Enjoy your day, wishing you a happy weekend.
ReplyDeleteHope you get to see more of the eagle on its nest.
ReplyDeleteOh WOW! You got such a good photo of the Eagle on the nest! I know you were thrilled to see it. Love those turtles and pretty Spring blooms too! Stay safe!
ReplyDeleteAn eagle nest. A true treasure!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for this. We birders at I'd Rather B Birdin appreciate your blog post & photos!
