On July 4th weekend, we visited Cuyahoga Valley National Park. We explored Beaver Marsh and stopped by Brandywine Falls.
Lots of beautiful lily blooms in the marsh.
We saw many tree swallows while on our walk.
Looking out over Beaver Marsh.
We got an excellent close-up of a Great Blue Heron
Lunch!
A gang of tree swallows
A mother Wood Duck with her ducklings
A giant snapping turtle!
Lots of Red-winged Blackbirds were flying around
Beautiful blooms
Like momma, like baby
The same Great Blue Heron went to a different spot to fish
Such a beautiful bird
The most exciting bird sighting of the day was a Green Heron
They can be very difficult to spot because they stay so still while fishing
The Greeny in motion!
Martin's favorite bird, and I bet you can see why!
Brandywine Falls
We saw a mink exploring very close to the edge of the falls
Until next time!
Again, GREAT photos. Especially enjoyed both herons, the mink, and "like momma like baby." <3
