Yellow Legs

Driving by a local pond today, we spotted a new bird to us! It was a Lesser Yellowlegs, a lovely shore bird. See how yellow it's legs are? And a handsome long beak as well. The dark blurry lines are because I was shooting through a wire fence.



Alongside him was what I suppose to be a mate!

I love those shore birds... their legs look so thin that they wouldn't support an ant, let alone a big bird like that. But they do. Praise God for car rides... especially in today's world. Love, Andrea xoxo

That is a very nice bird but it does not come to the Netherlands!
I had to take my camera and go to sea, but now I can not because of the lockdown!
Have a nice day, Ginny!

Good shots, Ginny! The best is the animals now... humans are caged up and the animals are free to roam about...

That is a new bird to me as well. What a beautiful bird with stunning yellow legs! The long beak must be very useful to catch fish :-)

Hello, I am Theresa Williams After being in relationship with Anderson for years, he broke up with me, I did everything possible to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so much because of the love I have for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to my friend and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back but I am the type that never believed in spell, I had no choice than to try it, I mailed the spell caster, and he told me there was no problem that everything will be okay before three days, that my ex will return to me before three days, he cast the spell and surprisingly in the second day, it was around 4pm. My ex called me, I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that happened that he wanted me to return to him, that he loves me so much. I was so happy and went to him that was how we started living together happily again. Since then, I have made promise that anybody I know that have a relationship problem, I would be of help to such person by referring him or her to the only real and powerful spell caster who helped me with my own problem. His email: {drogunduspellcaster@gmail.com} you can email him if you need his assistance in your relationship or any other Case.

Sunday Sunset

 I snapped these from the Target parking lot. The sun had just gone down, but the trees were hiding the very bottom part of the sunset. Life...
