Scenes from our first group visit to Eilean Donan – Kyle of Lochalsh, Scotland.
The third photograph is of a Rowan tree. The Rowan Tree Symbolism and Meaning in Celtic Mythology is fascinating.
The biggest surprise, and a life bird, was a fly by in the location of the last photograph by a White Tailed Eagle. I saw many cormorants and oyster catchers.
Two photographs with similar color themes. I added some fog in the top half of the background using Firefly in Photoshop.
A visit to the private little nature Sanctuary in Tenafly, New Jersey. The beetles and spider are new species for me.
I just love that frog.
Some more form our walk (see the post before this one). The Fowler’s toad is dark one.
The last two photos were taken the next day as we left Chincoteague on June 8. The black vultures are eating a terrapin killed by a car. Marc was interviewed by a reporter for WBOC/Fox 21, of Delmarva on June 6. The young lady reporter wanted our opinion about terrapin road kills and what should be done. We said signs are needed, especially during nesting season. It is the female terrapins that are getting killed.
We took a nature oriented boat trip with the Littoral group. This is the first of 5 posts on that trip. It started off overcast and cleared up a bit later. The female terrapin came ashore to lay her eggs.
A collection of my plant and wildlife photographs made at the Assateauge Lighthouse and Assateague Beech, in Chincoteague, Virginia. All carefully identified.
Marc and I did stopped ant the wildlife refuge and later at the Island Nature Trail in Chincoteague. There were hundreds of newly hatched little toads.
