American Robin's egg on the ground
This morning, I dragged myself away from my computer and joined a group of friends for a walk at Carburn Park, down by the Bow River. I missed the walks the last two weeks for one reason or another, and it felt good to take a short break from going through my Trinidad & Tobago photos - not to mention posting them! - but I know I must plod on.
I only took a handful of photos today, as the birds were so far away. However, I was happy to see an American Robin posing nicely down by the edge of the river. Not far away, we found a Robin's egg lying on the ground. A brilliantly coloured Baltimore Oriole flitted from branch to branch, usually mostly hidden by leaves, but I did manage to get a very distant, cropped shot. A second Oriole was spotted in the same area. Towards the end of our walk, we stood and watched a pair of Canada Geese swimming with a long line of maybe 20 or more goslings, all in a very disciplined line. Apparently, some orphaned goslings had been placed with this pair, for them to adopt. It seemed to be working out just fine. Once they all reached a sandbar, then chaos ruled, with each gosling moving in a different direction. It almost looked like the adults seemed to be a little frazzled.
Hopefully, tomorrow I will get some time to start on the photos from Day 7 of our trip to Trinidad & Tobago.
