Backyard Critters, Summertime

Robin

For the turtle's close-up, I used the zoom. I'm a little afraid that he might bite!

I'm including this vertical shot so you can see his trail!

Next we have a duck. 




Can you see the goose in this twilight shot?

  1. Great shot of the bird sitting on the railing. The turtle may be slow but he'll get there eventually. I love that you included his trail.
    A wonderful set of images! Enjoy your day.

  6. Nice photos of all of your backyard critters! I like seeing the robin. We only get to see robins here for a few weeks in the early spring as they pass through on their way north.

  7. Beautiful shots - what fun to have a turtle right there on your property. I used to get snappers in Iowa, but I don't see any up here. Yours isn't the biting type, I don't think.

  8. That appears to be a good-sized turtle. It sure came a long way.

    Disarming the turtle.
    On the back of a tortoise grow something green, moss?
