We drive on this street to go to Lowe’s or the grocery store so it’s an easy stop.

This week there were a lot of cattle egrets around the cows.

Good morning. Wonderful photos of the egrets and even the donkey. He is a cute one. Pop, our pony, is about his size. They'd be good friends, I think. Here we have Canada geese flying overhead. You can hear them coming, honking and chatting with each other, even in the house. Enjoy your weekend.

Wonderful photos, Diane. The egrets on the cow's back are hilarious. And I think you've named that white donkey well - I'll bet he's glad to see you stop by with a treat. Birds in flight are so beautiful and you've captured them well. Have a wonderful day!
