  • Burke Lake Park

    Yesterday afternoon we had glorious weather here in Northern Virginia and I went on my first birding hike.  Burke Lake Park is a great place to do that.

    I took 269 photos, including many of Barn Swallows (a lifer for me), a Heron (which I'd seen before but never gotten a photo of), Bluebirds (ditto), and some GREAT shots of a Red-Bellied Woodpecker.  I'll be putting the best of those photos on my Bird Compendium in the next few days.

    In the meantime, enjoy these.

    And what trip to a lake would be complete without a float in a tree?

  • U take some outstanding photos, Mary... so vivid and beautiful.  I look forward to checkin' out the additional pics on your Bird Compendium.

    Yeah, we had equally nice weather here in Southeastern VA.

  • Glorious!  I'm so glad your weather allows you to get out again.
