Having lunch

This is a peregrine falcon that lives at the MK Nature Center. The bird was injured and rehabbed, but can no longer survive in the wild due to the injury. On this day, we watched the falcon eat its lunch. (Yes, the mouse was already dead). 

After the first "bite". 

Time for a little more ...   

Yum! All done! 

The relationship between the bird and the handler moved me - you can best see it in the 2nd and 4th photos. 

Wishing you at least one pleasant lunch this week....

Sunday at the Nature Center

Water ripples over rocks in a stream 

Flowers in bloom 



Water line problems "in bloom" too? 

Looking down on a goose with her goslings. The goslings are on the right side of the photo, camouflaged by plants and the shadows of leaves. There are seven of them (I think); three near the mother and four more at the top left. 

A closeup of four of the goslings.  

Much to be grateful for on a beautiful Spring day....
