Following on from Monday’s post when I took my bird
class to the Flood Gates and then to Kiltonga Lake, these are some more of the
shots I took that day. After that I made
my way to Bangor Walled Garden where I took the rest of the photographs. I am linking this post with GOOD FENCES. So
enjoy and may your Thursday be a bright one.
Aiden is looking though my telescope at the thousands of Pale bellied Brent and
much more.
Some more of the groups at the Flood Gates above and
below, later when we stopped for coffee.
This is the Lake at Kiltonga where tomorrow
I will be
showing you some of the birds we saw.
The gardeners have started planting for the spring
season ahead and here you see the Pansies. So enjoy the rest of the colourful
plants I photographed.
Rosehips
Chard
I hope you enjoyed this post and I thanks you for
visit today.
Many thanks to all those who leave comments.
It looks as if you had an excellent day.

Splendid series of photographs, thank you Margaret!
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous day, beautiful setting, lovely garden, apparently good company (you can never tell with birders!), birds to watch - all that AND coffee!
ReplyDeleteSounds like paradise, Margaret!
Thank you for sharing your class outing. Looking forward to the birds!
Wow, what beautiful color in those flowers! Love the rosehips, especially, lovely photograph. I wish I could participate in one of your birding tours. Have a great day!

ReplyDeleteI very much enjoyed your photos. Thanks for the tour of the Walled Garden.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots of the bird class but the gardens are incredible! Such beautiful fall color! Love the rose hips and the brightly colored leaves.
ReplyDeleteit's really a beautiful area with great wetlands viewing! thanks, margaret!
ReplyDeleteLooks like great group and a great outing. I especially enjoyed the colorful flowers/plants/leaves you showed us today.. We are getting ready to go into winter --so not too much is blooming here in the Glade in Tennessee right now. We do have some good Fall Colors around --as the leaves on our trees turn!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
Hugs,
Betsy
Beautiful images, Margaret.
ReplyDeleteOh my your group looks to be having fun, what a wonderful thing to be a part of. Those gardens are amazing too, such beauty as all your photos are.
ReplyDeleteHi Margaret - I'm so excited to be able to comment on your blog again! I caught up with you at Run*a*Round Ranch for Good Fences. I didn't want to join Google Plus, and I couldn't figure out how to comment on it without joining. Your post is wonderful, and what a great place to go birding! Thank you for stopping by my blog...maybe now we can reconnect.!
ReplyDeleteI love your up close photos. They are simply gorgeous. Someone mentioned rose hips. I have always wondered about them.
ReplyDeleteFences everywhere ... and Pansies in the fall? Do they make it through the winter? Your fall colors are wonderful and varied. I so enjoy going for these walks with you :) Have a wonderful weekend, Margaret ...

Wow! I love the chard, and the yellow stemmed plants. The yellow stemmed one is just exquisite with the sun shining on it! What are these big red fruits with the thorny stems? Radishes? Pomegranates?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post. I love the rich greens and also all the bright colors.
ReplyDeleteI did enjoy your post very much. I bet it's fun to get with a group of people and bird watch. The shot of the birds at the lake is really lovely. Also all those gorgeous flowers, I would so have enjoyed being there and did enjoy your photos. The chard was so colorful and that last shot with the brick wall and creeping vine is delightful.
ReplyDeleteChard is so beautiful! I really hope I remember to plant it next spring as an ornamental. :)
ReplyDeleteThis was a nice post. I have been to Northern Ireland and it is a beautiful place. I missed your little corner of the world. Went straight from Belfast up to Larne and then the Antrim coast. Great Pictures!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful park for bird watching and spending pleasant time! Thank you for sharing your beautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteA lovely area for bird watching Margaret.
ReplyDeleteGreat colors!
