Nature Friday with Garden Critters

Welcome to Nature Friday where we get to meet new friends and share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville. With the warmer weather moving in, Mama had the chance to see some critters enjoying the sunshine at the Botanical Gardens during her last visit.

The Wood Ducks are swimming in the ponds.

Here are a couple of American Widgeons looking for snacks.....

.......Here I am singing them 

"Iiiiiiii ain't got no snaaaaackies" 

song. Hint, hint Mama!

Back to the critters.....here is a Canadian goose....

It was even warm enough for the turtles to come out and sun themselves!

We'll wrap things up with a look at a pair of Wood Ducks taking a stroll in between swims!

Thanks for stopping by today and joining us for a look at just some of the critters at the Botanical Gardens. It is nice to see everything and every critter enjoying the first days of our early Spring!

We hope all our friends get to enjoy some nature this weekend!

Thankful for Sweet Thursday Noises

 

Today, on Thankful Thursday, I have one of mine and Mama's favorite birds, the Sandhill Crane!

I am thankful they fly high in the sky and don't land in our yard.

Mama is thankful for their sweet cooing cries when they are flying around.

Here give it a listen:

What do you mean you wish my barking talking was as sweet to the ears as theirs, Mama??

Eating Crow(s) on Backyard Wildlife Wednesday

Today, on BWW, we are going to take a look at one of my greatest enemies, THE CROW! This is one of the only birdies Mama allows me to chase. Unfortunately,  they are pretty smart and fly back as soon as I go inside. Here is a look at these big pesky birdies acting like they own the birdy circus grounds: 

Watch out crows, I have horns and I'm not afraid to use them!!!

Flowery Friday

 

Welcome to Nature Friday where we get to meet new friends and share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville.

Mama is getting out and about a little more and earlier this week she took a little stroll around the ABQ Botanical Garden looking for some Spring color. She wasn't dissappointed, as there was color around every turn. Starting with these pretty Iris's

She visited the Cactus garden and found this pretty Blue Plumbago

She also visited the Mediterranean garden and saw the bright red bromeliad....

...and some pretty white orchids too!

Oh, she saw some outside color too!

The bottle brush bush was blooming

The lenten roses were everywhere....

and Spring's favorite ambassador, the crocus, were sprouting.

We hope you enjoyed the colors Spring is bringing to our corner of Blogville. 

Here's to a fun weekend filled with Nature for all our friends!

Show us your nature! It can be flowers, your current weather, a scene out of your window, or maybe a picture from a vacation, walk or other journey! Any kind of nature picture will do! If you don't see a link below, click HERE  to go to our Hoppity Page.

Comfy Couch Thankfuls

Today I am thankful for a couch to relax on after a morning of running around outside.

Not only is it comfy.....

I can still keep an eye out for backyard critters!

Do you have a place you like to relax and watch the outside world??
