And of course more ripening berries. With the berries, including the blueberries, ripening I'll be able to go on other trails as the bears will be well fed and not so cranky.
A Post to MWT and WBW.
you do have a wonderful mix of birds and blooms there. and i like the pretty water scenes in the first few shots.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos. Greetings from Montreal.

What a wonderful collection of images once again. I love going on walks with you.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday,

I think they are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful selection of shots. The colour of that Indigo Bunting is stunning!
ReplyDeleteFab shots Gary, love the indigo bunting!
ReplyDeleteYou really caught the light in the eyes of that Nashville Warbler, and the flower shots are exquisite!
ReplyDeleteThe eyes of that Nashville Warbler really catch the light, and the flower shots are exquisite! Ken Schneider http://blog.rosyfinch.com
ReplyDeleteYou wouldn't know the weather hasn't been great from the photos - it was lovely seeing the images from your walks!
ReplyDeleteAn extensive visual symphony of life.
ReplyDeleteWieder einmal sehr schöne Bilder!
ReplyDeleteWonderful series!
ReplyDeleteThe slide show is amazing ! At first I thought the plane was a bird.lol Beautiful shots!
ReplyDeleteHi Gary I particularly liked your shots of the birds in flight.
ReplyDeleteRegards

So much beauty in your world. Thanks for sharing it through your photography.

ReplyDeleteLiked all of them.

You do indeed have an abundance of beauty in your world, Gary! I love the birds, butterflies and lovely flowers and always the skies and water! Thanks for sharing it with us!
ReplyDeleteSylvia
Awesome captures of your rich and amazing world!
ReplyDeleteIt sure is beautiful right now! I didn't realize indigo buntings migrated so far north. I just saw my first one here last week. And I have never seen a Nashville warbler...to my knowledge, anyway.
ReplyDeleteWonderful series.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers, birds, butterflies and nature.
See some of the wild flowers are the same as we have here.
Wish you a wonderful day.
Mette
Great photos as usual. Really impressed by the humming bird in flight one.
ReplyDeleteThe rising mist my favourite. Must be a joy to breath. Please have a good Tuesday.
ReplyDeletedaily athens photo
Always enjoy your birds and the flowers are lovely. All beautiful sightings and photos. Have a lovely week!
ReplyDeleteWonderful images! Greetings from Brasov!
ReplyDeleteLike Robert, the rising mist is my favorite, too. These are outstanding.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you soon won't have to worry about cranky bears on the trails you hike. Your pictures in this post are excellent. I like the birds you've captured, especially the hummingbirds, but I think the picture of the mist rising from the river is absolutely beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYour world is gorgeous at this time of year! Love the bunting shots - and oh, those blue skies!
ReplyDeleteDas sind Raphael und YvonneJune 26, 2012 at 1:21 AM
Wow, absolutely stunning landscape and bird shots!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful collection!
Have a nice week!

Gary, I love those reflection shots and the blue buntings..but my favourite is the rising mist shot!Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteShantana
Very nice series of images you display with landscape / birds and insects. Wishing you a good Tuesday. Hanne Bente
ReplyDeleteHi there - great set of picture - but the trademark squirrel shot to round off the post is missing!
ReplyDeleteStewart M - Australia
Mind the bears! Great photographs, you have such an eye.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and colorful.
ReplyDeleteLove those wild blueberries.. Great post...
ReplyDeleteIt looks like more great hiking. I love the shot of the mist rising off the lake.
ReplyDeleteMy heart skips a beat when I skip through your blog - A m a z i n g !
ReplyDeleteSuperb captures! Love them!!
ReplyDeleteI noticed you comment on another blog and popped over to visit. Your photos are beautiful! Your dog's photo caught my eye though as our son has a Husky/Lab cross. I'm a New Brunswicker and enjoy nature and the countryside. Have a great day! Pamela
ReplyDeleteAwesome serie of photos, - a lot of great coloured birds!
ReplyDeleteA great series of photos - all beautiful! - but I especially like the mist rising from the water.
ReplyDeleteA wondeful selection of just about everything Gary. those hummers amaze me by for such a tiny thing travelling so far north in their amazing journeys.
ReplyDeleteI love the raven! And the flying bunting! And the flowers, all of them. And ... Awesome shots! Thank you for sharing a bit of your world.
ReplyDeleteAnother exceptional walk Gary!
ReplyDeleteLove the indigo in flight!!! That is incredible.
ReplyDeleteIt's difficult to time and get the perfect bird, flying...you did a super job.
As, all your photos of nature are lovely.
I'd love to take the credit for the Indigo In flight, but really that was pure luck.
DeleteAll wonderful shots, but the Indigo Bunting would be "photo of the week" for me. What a thrill it must have been to see it!
ReplyDeletenature abounds around you Gary; always enjoy your photographs, even down to the weeny hummer included today. I also love the clover flowers...
ReplyDeleteA fantastic series of images Gary... I was sad when the images ended. Wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI am traveling, and I need your advice, How to adapt from the middle of winter to a hot tropical island. I am here at 3 .15 am reading your blog. and this is the third morning.
ReplyDeleteI am hibernating, not wanting to go out. Took some flower photos and birds in a cage, luckily, I am staying in my sister's place and don't have to pay for accommodation.
Fantastic shots as usual! I love the deep blue background in so many of your photos!
ReplyDeleteAmei a série de fotos, mas em especial... das flores, é claro!
ReplyDeleteBeijinhos.

Beautiful bird (and bomber) pictures. - Margy
ReplyDeleteLovely account of a great hike!
ReplyDeleteYou've got some incredible shots here. I love Cedar Waxwings and the image of the flying hummingbird is outstanding!
ReplyDeleteYou provide us a smorgasbord of photos, Gary! These are amazing, and the identification is so helpful! I need to spend more time with my field guide!
ReplyDeleteCalling by as a participant in Our World Tuesday, a great selection from your world. Thankyou for your interest in my entry, hope you will call by again.
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, what a wonderful group of interesting subjects. Love them all!
ReplyDeleteFabulous captures, Gary -- love the variety of birds and flora. :)
ReplyDeleteExcellent pictures, the Waxwing and the Paintbrush are favorites of mine.
ReplyDeleteWonderfully colorful series!
ReplyDeleteSo many beautiful birds and flowers! And I am really impressed that you can name them all. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat shots of your birds and wildlife. I think the one yellow flower may be Monkey Flower. I like the flying hummer pic a lot!
ReplyDeleteNo prize on the Monkey flower which is mauve, but your help managed to send me in the right direction. It's Birdsfoot Trefoil, brought to Canada by early settlers. It's a member of the pea family, and fixes nitrogen in the soil, thus improving it.Many thanks.
DeleteAs always, your nature photography is stunning. It's an incredible nature that surrounds you, and thanks for showing all this!
ReplyDeleteGary thanks for your many comments!
Oh Gary, breathtaking as usual. I've missed reading your posts -- what a joy it will be to catch up. Every picture is just perfect (that strange non-wildlife winged creature surprised me :>). As always I'm amazed at your knowledge as well as at your beautiful pix
ReplyDeleteWow I really enjoyed this series as you probably did when you did it. Gorgeous shots and i love the indigo bunting! Well done!
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots as usual Gary, but I am distracted by your amazing blue skies!
ReplyDeleteWow, what fantastic shots! I especially like the birds in flight shots, the blurs of motion are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteThanks everybody for your kind words and visits!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River.
ReplyDeleteThank you as always for a tour of your corner of the world Gary...just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteMoody skies and a wonderful collection of birds. What a wonderful morning you and Boomer must have had!
ReplyDeleteLove seeing all these beauties.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by :)
