Sky Watch Friday 5-16

It's Sky Watch Friday and it's your chance to post your Sky pictures and go to Wiggers World to join.

I was coming back from fishing and stopped with my grandson to see some Canadian Geese with their goslings. This is a little pond and the geese took the goslings in for a swim. I didn't notice the sky until later.
A Great Blue Heron flew by and even though I didn't have my good camera I took a chance and got a cloudy blue sky picture. You can click to get a little better view.

Fishing Guy, Alias Critter Man, that was a great sky watch photo! When do the Cavs play again? And remember there is another big horse race tomorrow. Hope no horses get hurt and that Big Brown wins.

Gorgeous reflections! I enjoy seeing the babies so much this time of year!

You have baby geese!! My geese don't even seem to be nesting (or if they are, they are very clever hiders of nests). But the season is just beginning. I must be patient!

Lilli & Nevada said...

Loved the first one with the ducks and the beautiful little baby following them
The reflection is wonderful as well

roentare said...

A beautiful pond to visit. Nice scenery in deed!

Unknown said...

The reflection pond is great, I also like the groundhog you were able to capture and that bullfrog in your other posting too.

I see I got alot of catching up to do since I been taking my little vacation.
