That's My World Tuesday: Sunday walk - North Carolina Piedmont

I'm setting up some posts to auto publish because work in my world may interfere with my blogging. I will try to visit other participants as soon as I can, although I may be slow.

The shots in this post are from a walk this Sunday around Lake Lynn. There were four great blue heron which I spotted and enjoyed photographing.

I love the great blues. They are such beautiful and also somewhat eccentric looking birds to me. Not sure why I think they look like eccentrics.

This time of year the leaves are still in the early stages of changing color and I'm looking for ones that have changed when I walk.

At first I thought the red on the other side of the lake was a tree that had changed but then realized it was a red canoe.

Please visit the home of That's My World Tuesday to find more participants.
