This past Saturday we left Fairview Riverside State Park, one day early, and headed to Purvis, Mississippi. We are staying at my brother and sister-in-laws home on 160 beautiful acres. We left a day early in order to visit our nephew visiting from Texas. We are having a great time.
I followed this little guy around for a few minutes while he hunted bugs. I guess he decided to just let me take his picture. “Just get it over with so I can get back to eating”.
Finally, had the opportunity to get close enough to capture a few photos of the Great Egret that has been fishing on the banks of the Tchefuncte River here in Fairview Riverside State Park. On our daily walks, I have seen this Great Egret standing perfectly still, then stealthily moving along the shore like an experienced mime.
However, unlike a mime, the Egret is not entertaining us. Instead with a skill necessary for survival and honed over time, it is hunting with focus and determination.
It gives me great pleasure to observe and photography these beautiful, regal Herons. I wish she would have caught something!
We experienced wave after wave of rain last night and this morning it is still raining. Unlike a Colorado rain, which last for a short period of time, these Louisiana rains last all day, all night and all day……
flowering vines
like lovers intertwined
hearts beating as one
melding friendship and love
forming a life long bond
These photos taken in Fairview Riverside State Park. I don’t know what they are; however they are beautiful. We are in for a rainy day with 100% rain predicted.
Enjoy you day!
On Wednesday, November 20, 2013 we entered Louisiana heading to Fairview Riverside State Park in Madisonville, LA. On our way we stopped at a I55 rest area, where I shot these photos. I don’t know how many states have RV dump stations, but I have seen several in Louisiana, which I think are nice.
