All One Has To Do Is Look

This morning I went for a walk. It is really amazing what you will see when you really look around.
My walks take me by a pond and this morning as I approached the pond, I saw about 12 turtles making a hasty retreat into the water.
I was able to find 2 brave turtles that sat still long enough to actually let me photograph them.
During my walk, I looked up into the trees and was surprised when I saw this really large nest built in one of the tall pine trees. I decided to sit down and wait and see what kind of bird would show up at the nest.


After waiting about 15 minutes, I saw 3 hawks or falcons flying around and eventually they made their way to this huge nest. If you look closely, you can see 2 of them here.

Great pictures Rick! Those turtles are red-eared sliders named because they have a red stripe down the sides of their head and they slide very quickly into the water when scared...I have had one as a pet for the last 21 years :)
