Friday morning wetlands walk:
Other early risers:
Sunday morning, just outside the door:
We've been busy.
But morning walks start each day serenely.
Linking to: MOSAIC MONDAY (Judith); OUR WORLD (Lady Fi, Sylvia, Sandy, Gattina, Arija, Jenn); NATURE NOTES (Michelle); WILD BIRD WEDNESDAY (Stewart); and WEDNESDAY WATERS (Gemma). Thank you to all of the hosts.
I think you must live in paradise!
What a beautiful way to greet the day.
Dearest Sallie; Good Morning, my Dear early riser(♡˘◡˘♡) Beautiful scenery, I wish to be with you to start a day♡♡♡ And I LOVE the marvelous collage with the cute birdie in the middle♪
Oh, my husband woke up and I’ll visit your next post after serving him breakfast 🙂
Sending Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan to my Dear friend in America, xoxo Miyako*
well, that´s a beautiful way to start the day. I would not mind having that view myself 🙂
In my book, nothing beats a sunrise walk though a wetland! Thanks for sharing
Great looking Goldcrest in there.
Morning is my absolute favorite time of day.
Glad you can fit a serene morning walk into your busy days.
Your wetlands look enchanting and everchanging. Gorgeous views and inmteresting wildlife activity at every turn.
Lovely to be walking in a sinrise like that.Love the ducks
Lovely series… and a nice start of the day 🙂
What a landscape you have to enjoy! I’m still walking the trail behind my house early in the morning whenever I don’t have a hike or bike planned. It’s a good way to start the day. I don’t have water or ducks though…
Ahhhhh… I would get out of bed earlier to see those views and meet the neighbors too…. Lovely Sallie… Oh, Doug Tallamy wrote one of THE book on planting native. He does give talks but is probably very busy….. Michelle
Lovely place for a walk!
I agree those early morning walks are serene, beautiful and an important part of my day too!
Nice pictures – that looks like a decent family of ducks.

PS: Glad you like my out of the box picture
A morning walk is a great way to begin the day!
A beautiful morning mood !
Beautiful morning moods and I especially like the first photo.
To walk in such beauty early mornings must be so peaceful and hopeful, Sallie. These are very lovely photos.
That first photo of the sky took my breath away!
What a perfect way to start the day. I love that last cute bird!
What a wonderful way to greet the day. Lovely photos my friend. It’s nice and green here right now and the temps have not been bad. Of course others have flooding which is terrible. We drove to the Gulf coast yesterday and saw water but not really bad flooding. Hugs, Diane
I can see and appreciate the serenity of your early morning walk as this is when I like to be out too.
Thanks for linking to Mosaic Monday Sallie.
loveliness. thanks for sharing it!
Beautiful photos and mosaics, Sallie! I almost missed the little black swans, with my eyes all fixated on the green grass 🙂
The Golden Finch on the arch is very cool.
Have a Great Week!
Peace 🙂
Beautiful as always Sallie! Thanks for your comment. I am still in Australia. Now I can use the computer of the library where my daughter works. It’s still quiet but in an hour or so there will be a crowd of schoolchildren.
Have a nice week, Sallie.

I love that first shot!
Bless those you wake up early and enjoy the quietness of the world.
I love to walk early. It starts the day in such a lovely way. it has been so beastly hot here that even first thing it is almost too hot for walking very far. Though I love summer, this heat makes me long for autumn.
Love that first one. What a scene to start the day.
Sunrise wins every time over sunset. At sunrise the whole day is ahead.
The sun goes down all too quick. At this time of the year we occasionally get a “pink” and magical morning.
The morning shot of the wetlands is so peaceful! What a fantastic way to start the day, seeing that as well as all the wildlife. Hope you are enjoying cool temps now. Only 26 more days until I arrive in Portland (and cooler weather, I hope!). 🙂
The very best way to start each and every day! It’s raining here.

Serene is a perfect word for these photos Sallie. Your photos are gorgeous! I look forward to one day visiting that part of the USA again.
Lovely
I enjoy seeing the sun rise, Thank you for your buzy morning 🙂
Have a nice day 🙂
What a wonderful way to begin the day!!
Morning walks are so nice. Lovely morning collage!
What a lovely spot for early walks-and great photos to share!
Great early morning shots of beautiful birds.
What wonderful scenery to start each day!
There is serenity in these photos. An early morning walk is like meditating and sets me off on the right foot (please excuse the pun) for the rest of the day.
What gorgeous shots!
Such beautiful surmises. Good to start each day with beauty! Hope you have a wonderful week!!
Hello Sallie, what a gorgeous place for a morning walk. I love the sweet goldie and the ducks. The sunrises are gorgeous. Happy Monday, have a great new week ahead!
