Teresa's Friday's Hunt
1. Start's with R
2. Weeks Favorite
3. Texture
April 10th hubby and I visited the York Pa Great Egret and Black Crowned Night Heron rookery. I thought it maybe a little early to see these birds working on their nest at the rookery, I counted at least 14 egrets and maybe 4 Night Herons.
For Tex's Good Fences meme I have an overall view of the lake and Rookery in York Pennsylvania.
1. Great Egrets were hunted for their plumes nearly to extinction in the early 1900's. Luckily laws were created to protect these birds. The Egret below is one of my favorite photos for my Friday's Hunt.
2. Not bird related, one morning while watching "The View" I heard Donny Osmond say he has been performing for nearly 50 years. Donny's deput was on the Andy Williams Show in 1962. I would have been 6 yrs old, this makes me feel old, LOL. Do you remember the Andy Williams Show and the Donny and Marie Osmond show?
3. A fun fact about the Egret, during their breeding season they have a patch of neon green near show up on their faces near their eyes.
For Teresa's Friday's hunt I think the features on the Egret above is great for the prompt Texture.
4. I just read this fact about the Black Crowned Night Heron seen below. A breeding Night Heron will brood any chick that placed in it's nest.
For Good Fences and for Skywatch Friday I have the pretty sky above and my moon addiction photo below.
5. On April 10th I was able to catch the waxing crescent moon and the star Aldebaran close by. Can you see the tiny star near the moon in my photo? The star is just a tiny dot near the bottom right side of the photo. BTW, for Teresa's Friday's Hunt this is also my favorite photo for the week.
