What better way to spend a warm sunny spring day than to hang out sunbathing with a waterfront view!
This painted turtle appears totally relaxed sunning its self on the rotting tree. With water underneath the turtle can slide from its perch, plunging to safety in the blink of an eye.
Perched and the very top of a tree just beginning to leaf this Eastern Kingbird has an excellent view over the surrounding wetlands.

Its hard to say without seeing the back of the bird. I'd say you have an Eastern Kingbird, though, as the top of the head looks more black than gray in this pic.
ReplyDeleteLove the shot, whatever kind of bird it is!
Salty: Love the turtle photo, truly a relaxed look.
ReplyDeleteI love that turtle picture! That one surely is enjoying a relaxing time. :)
ReplyDeleteMy CC post is up HERE. Hope you're having a great Sunday!
That turtle photo made me laugh - looks like he's exhausted from a long day - great shot! Nice to see the Eastern Kingbird - I thought I saw one this morning, but now that I'm seeing your photo, I realize it must be something else that I saw.
ReplyDeleteNice images, i really love the kingbird one ;)
ReplyDeleteGood photos, Coy

ReplyDeleteThanks for your regards and the one of Brenda for the birth of Lucas
Love both shots, but the Eastern Kingbird with the soft background is just great. Well done!
ReplyDeleteBoth photos are wonderful, Coy! I think you framed both shots really nicely.
ReplyDeleteI've not seen or heard of a 'Kingbird' before... I've made a note of it and will google it later and read up on them.. great pictures as always my friend.
