Yesterday was Photo Safari Day as you can plainly see!  It was impromptu.  Not planned ahead which is unusual for us.  Joy texted me around 10 or so and asked if I was busy. I was cleaning house and doing laundry so of course I said, nope, not busy at all. Hah!  So she swung down to pick me up and we headed to Felt's Audubon Preserve. So naturally this will be known as the Audubon Hike.

As soon as we arrived, we headed straight away to the Bird Blind.  There are guaranteed bird photos there as long as you are patient and quiet.  Part of the blind is outside and part of it is inside.  We took advantage of both.  The outside part looks like this:

The birds looked like this.  Get ready, there's lot's of 'em:

After awhile, we stepped back and just hiked the preserve taking photos of other things as they appealed to us.  There are lots of different parts of this preserve.  It's not a huge place, only about 28 acres, but there are a surprising number of environments even so.  Here's a sample:

Saw a few other creatures which is always a treat. We knew that we would see birds, but we did not anticipate all of the rest.  To be fair another one is still a bird but one that wasn't in the blind.

There were a few flowers, though not a lot:

And this must be the point where I post my favourites, the randos.  I only have a few for you today.

Thanks for coming along for the Audubon Hike. Hope you enjoyed it. We sure did.

This will be my last post for a bit.  I'm taking a little time off, at least a week, maybe a wee bit more.  So while I'm gone,  everybody be safe, have fun and I will meet you all again right here in a week or so.

​Hugs all 'round!
