In 2014 we drove along a back road in North Carolina with a traffic jam.
No farmer around, and not many places of interest to these cows.
They were kind enough to move to the far side of the road so we drove on by.
In 2018 I found the Canada Geese weren't shy about people walking right past them. If they wanted to nap or feed by Lake Tomahawk, they'd just do it.
In June 2023, there were goslings to capture as well as protective parents.
And this week I met these critters:

Like the whales, we each sing a unique song that heals and uplifts our collective.

My Sepia Saturday post for this week is in Three Family Trees, about Families, horses, children, and Indigenous homes.
...I've experienced familiar traffic jams.
ReplyDeleteYou do travel many back roads as evident by your great photos of farms, roads, nature views, and an occasional cow.
DeleteCanada Geese will do what they want to do when they want to do.
ReplyDeleteLove your header. It reminds me of the beach I grew up on.
I like visiting the beach, which reminds me it has been a few years!
DeleteA house along from us keep pigeons and we see them flying around daily, even had one in our garden a few years ago. https://craftygardener.ca/orb-weaver/
ReplyDeleteFor some reason, the pigeons are considered common, while doves are beautiful!
DeleteMy only Saturday critters seem to be cats.
ReplyDeleteAnd I’m very glad of that. I do miss having a cat,,!
DeleteLovely series of nature photos ~ favorite ~ the White Doves ~ elegant ~

I know That doves Are released as part of various celebrations, and then where are they supposed to go?
DeleteI love driving the backroads of NC and being out in farmland with cows! I sure do miss it when I see your photos!
ReplyDeleteI need to do more driving around myself, thanks for the reminder,.
DeleteHello Barb,
ReplyDeleteI would enjoy the cow traffic jam. The geese and gosling are cute. I believe the white birds are pigeons. The three dogs are all adorable. Lovely shot of you and DIL. Great photos. Thank you for linking up and sharing your critters and post. Take care, have a great weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
Good to hear from you Eileen, as I know Saturdays must be busy days for yoU!
DeleteFine pictures and what a great quote!
ReplyDeleteThanks...yep, we're just singing our whale songs, hoping someone out there speaks our language!
DeleteWe have cow jams and sometimes the bus driver will help herd them along with the farmers. :)
ReplyDeleteAh ha, another agricultural area!
DeleteThese are fun! Our kids went whale watching out east last week. No whales, but they did touch an ice berg, a small piece!
ReplyDeleteLovely critters this week!
