Weekend Walk_Sept 21

  I am linking up with   Mosaic Monday and Our World Tuesday 

 For this week's post I am sharing some scenes from last weekend's  walk at the Hashawha Nature Center.. It is a local park with some great trails and usually lots of birds to see.  I believe someone ask me in a previous Hashawha post what was the meaning of the name.. Hashawha is a Native American term meaning "old fields".  Hashawha is a participant in Program Open Space, Maryland Acres for Wildlife and is a registered tree farm. A restored wetland with a boardwalk is open to the public for recreational purposes.

A Belted Kingfisher and a Green Heron were the highlights of the bird sightings..

The Green Heron looking fluffy and maybe wet, it preened for quite a while.

The dragonfly looks like a Blue Darter,  a view of the wetlands and an Eastern Painted Turtle.
