White Dove in my Garden

I have seen this white Dove a few times in my garden.  I think she is very pretty.  I hope everyone is having a good day.

WILD BIRD WEDNESDAY

Last week I showed you a Black headed gull diplaying to another one which I thought was very early for this time of the year but on a walk in Ward park about a week ago, I also spotted this Black headed gull that had practically got its black head, (It's really brown).  It is all happening here in N.Ireland.

The Weekend Roundup and Weekend Reflections

Time again for The Weekend Roundup and Weekend Reflections.  This week the letter is D, favourite and Details.  Now since Tom started this meme, I have tried to take all my photographs from one of my walks and although all of the photographs are from the same day in this post, they were taken from a moving train.  So hop aboard and come with me and see what we can find.  Ah we are on the train to DERRY/Londonderry.

There are quite a number of REFLECTION images.

I saw a DIGGER, DIGGING DIRT.  

I was amazed to see the cygnet still with these Mute Swan parents.  

Obviously this is the inside of the train and this is the DESIGN of the seat and below is a DETAIL of the fabric followed my a DETAIL of a fence.

D for DORITOS.

Although the train was travelling quite fast, when it got to a part of the journey were I could see the sea, I was able to ID lots of waders, ducks and geese, Little Egret and Heron but they were quite a distance away and so was unable to  photograph them.  I was  pleased to see the Whooper Swans with some young and I think these black and white birds below are Pale bellied Brent.

This is a DERELICT building and below that image are a number of varieties of DUCKS.

WILD BIRD WEDNEESDAY

A few weeks ago, I was sitting on one of the benches in Ward Park watching all the antic of the birds and I took this series of photographs of this Black head gull displaying to another gull.  I think in the end she was impressed as the two of them walked off together!

SUNDAY THOUGHT

There’s no one like her on earth, never has been, never will be. She’s a woman beyond compare. My dove is perfection, Pure and innocent as the day she was born, and cradled in joy by her mother. Everyone who came by to see her exclaimed and admired her— All the fathers and mothers, the neighbours and friends, blessed and praised her.

Song of Solomon 6:8-9

Photograph taken in my back garden.
