Day 307…Tundra Swan Migration

Welcome to day 307 of  365 photos…the Tundra swan migration is underway at Lake Mattamuskeet but it is just beginning. Mr. B and I took a ride to the lake yesterday to see what was going on. Believe it or not, the day was in the 70’s and hazy. They are promising some cold weather this week […]

Day 306…Dream Boat

Welcome to day 306 of  365 photos…I see many boats like this along the coast – no matter where we have traveled. I’ve seen them in Maine, North Carolina and Florida and places between.  Every time that I see one, I wonder if it is someones dream boat. Was it put there until next season and […]

Day 304…Red-shouldered Hawk

Welcome to day 304 of  365 photos…the resident red shouldered hawk is back. I assume it is the same one because his favorite place to sit is on top of the bluebird feeder, just like last year looking for something to eat. From  allaboutbirds.org: “Whether wheeling over a swamp forest or whistling plaintively from a […]

Day 303…Fall Colors

Welcome to day 303 of  365 photos…I haven’t seen fall colors like this since we moved here. This is the 3rd year that we have been here. Of course, the first year, we stayed in Maine until November. I didn’t set out today to look for fall colors. The day had been pretty drab so I […]

Day 302…Night Sky

Welcome to day 302 of  365 photos…Last night, as the moon was rising but still below the trees in my backyard, I set the camera on the tripod and played around taking photos of the night sky. My night sky photos are not great but not too bad either (at least in my eyes ). […]

Day 301…Full Moon Photo Cruise

Welcome to day 301 of 365 photos…I went on a full moon photo cruise yesterday. We left the dock aboard the Lady Swan around 4PM and cruised around the marshes looking for wildlife and birds. Capt. Tim then landed the vessel on the shore of a spoil island where we could disembark if we wanted to take photos of the setting sun and […]

Day 300…Common Buckeye Butterfly

Welcome to day 300 of  365 photos…I found this Common Buckeye butterfly down by the beach on the edge of a boardwalk. No, I didn’t know what it was. I spent almost an hour researching to find out what it was. The Common Buckeye is one of the most common and widespread butterflies in the United States. I […]

Day 299…another sunset

Welcome to day 299 of  365 photos…just another sunset but I can’t seem to resist them! A couple of days ago, Mr. B and I were on EI and on the way home. We were about to cross the bridge when I saw the beginning of spectacular sunset. I yelled for him to pull over – […]

Day 298…Election Day

Welcome to day 298 of  365 photos…today is election day. Did you vote? I participated in the early voting here in NC. We drove by a few places where voting was taking place and they seemed to be fairly busy. Of course, probably half the vehicles in the parking lots were the folks that were there […]

Day 297…Frost Already

Welcome to day 297 of  365 photos…we woke up to frost on the windshield this morning. For that matter, frost covered everything. Yikes!! winter is on the way – even here in North Carolina. I guess I won’t complain about the chill in the air though. Yesterday, (Sunday) found a nor’easter bearing down on Maine […]
