Pictures Taken During a Saturday Stroll Through the Beach
A glorious sunny day, so I took the dog for a long walk down by Woodbine Beach park. Here are some pics taken along the way.
A team practicing in a big ol' canoe down by Woodbine Beach Park.
An unhappy female Red-Winged Blackbird telling me to go away from her nesting site in no uncertain terms.
An immature mallard drake checking me out. (Sorry, no bread).

Fountains and Birds Down by Woodbine Park
After lunch, the girls, Yo-Bob and I headed down to Woodbine Park. I took the ball chucker in order to wear-out Yo-Bob, and the girls played in the playground. The fountain had also been turned back on, and the water-level of the pond has risen considerably, making it attractive for people and for the local birdlife.

This female Red-Winged Blackbird alighted on an adjacent bench, and allowed me to take a couple of quick pics before she flew off
