Blue Heron Park

Not much to see, but had to explore it nonetheless. The fauna is loving the weather –

 

Spear Fern

 

So are the weeds –

 

Just dandy

 

The creek is flowing pretty good –

 

Coulda been Tarzan

 

I thought about acting my best Tarzan and walking across on the fallen tree. I opted for the footbridge 30 feet to the right instead.

You now have seen most of the 1/2 acre park, thanks for visiting with us today.

That’s my town, kinda

 

Sun made an appearance today. Locals, typically, went nuts. The people all get out and about doing whatever, so long as it’s outside in the sun –

 

Take advantage

 

 

Nice day to walk around Gas Works

 

Just follow the path to the Wizard

Fliers, lateness, beer

Sunshine; “Last of the moving tasks need to be completed after work. Go to my house, have a beer and when I get done with work, we’ll get after it.”

Me; “Sure thing.”

So while waiting for 6 o’clock to roll around, I sat on his deck and took a few photos. Nice day, and the idiots paragliders were out –

 

Floaters

 

Everyone has their own pace –

 

Contrasting styles

 

Flier, floating, upstream –

 

Floating flier

 

The hawks were out looking for dinner –

Papa sparrow was making sure the hawks didn’t raid his nest –

 

Defender

 

This little guy was having dinner too –

 

MMM, bugs

 

By then it was time to get on with it. We moved what we could fit, leaving the last bits for later. Marla joined us, making sure the team was on point. Once the project wrapped, we commenced continued making beer disappear. The girls contributed by making 2 bottles of wine disappear. Good work Team.

So there was Thursday’s post about fliers, late, due to beer.

The purples are a nice touch.

What a great idea

Perfect weather to blow outta work early and go to the zoo –

Zoo kinda day

The penguins were taking advantage of the sunshine to work on their tans –

Penguin nap

The jaguar had just eaten lunch. A cow I think –

Jaguar lunch

Obviously stuffed, he took a nap too –

Then I stumbled across this dude. He’s a Red Ruffed Lemur. He’s VERY intense. Well, maybe not, but he looks like it –

Red Ruffed Lemur

Then I saw some TV star –

Meerkat

Then I found the big cat. Mama lion was yelling for her cubs –

Calling all cubs

All 4 came running back to her, INSTANTLY! –

Quattro

Playtime doesn’t end just because mom called –

Still playing

And just like that, the star attractions were gone for the day. Oh well, I guess I’ll have to go back.

On the way out, I did spy one last wild animal –

Zoo duck butt

So there was my great idea for the day.

One man’s trash,

Another man’s treasure –

 

Treasure

 

I’m just glad the city isn’t using it in their efforts to save money on the light-rail line.
