Lots of pretty holiday decorations here in Florida this year.
Let’s take a walk across the street.
Any bugs in the bushes that we can snack on while we stroll?
What’s that over there?
Is that a big Rudolph the Reindeer in the courtyard?
And do you really think we have snowmen in Florida?
JOY!!!
Well, not much happening here after the holidays.
Think I’ll look somewhere else for some action!
Gotta FLY!!!
I’m joining Beautiful Sunday
Amaze me Monday and
Lavender Cottage for Mosaic Monday.

Florida looks beautiful!
Beautiful bird and decorations. It's much easier to put up decorations in nice weather. LOL! I can remember many a cold even snowstorms where I was out putting up Christmas decorations when I lived up North but I never minded the cold if I was dressed right.
Have a great day!
Happy New Year Diana :) Birds are more fun to watch the older I get and I'm doing much more of it these last few Years. He's a funny character seems to Me. Enjoyed the after Christmas stroll . OX Denise
wish I was there!!!
Very nice! Thanks for the Florida tour :) Maggie
Morning, looks so pretty without the snow that e have here. Thanks for the stroll, Francine.
Diane, chuckled as I read this. You are out and about early this morning. I am always a bit jealous of your weather especially this time of year! It is raining here, the trees are encased in ice and snow accumulated a couple of inches bit before it turned to rain. Happy Sunday my friend!

Love your feathery warm stroll! Winter has finally returned to MI.
Love it.
Wow-- if people saw that walking down their street here, they would run out with their cameras and call the news stations!
Diane, I love the egret story. LOL. You are so funny. Your neighborhood is very nice and clean. Hope you are enjoy a wonderful Sunday. I am getting out today. Snow headed our way later. Bummer. xoxo,Susie
Oh my goodness! I see GRASS--green grass! I almost forgot what it looks like! Ha!
Your neighborhood looks like the perfect place to be in January. Thanks for sharing all these wonderful pictures.
I love the snowman Diane! Who'd have thought to see one in Florida :-) The egret was having a bit of a nosy time and loved the story about his snooping. Have a wonderful week xx
so cute!
Lovely capture of him in flight! :)
What a fun stroll through your neighborhood.
Great tour - loved the tour guide. I was wondering, did the neighbors find it unusual for someone to be following the Egret around while taking photos of their yards? The flight photo is fabulous. Thanks for the our my friend.
This was a fun stroll! Made me smile! Thanks Sis!
hugs,
Linda
What a great post! Snowmen in Florida, who'd a thunk it!
I enjoyed the little neighborhood tour with your feathered friend. Nice decorations.
Cute! We used to have random big birds land by our pond when we had it in Oklahoma. Always looking for a bite to eat. :)
Happy New Year to you!!
Just fantastic! I love how you capture the inner thoughts of this bird. ;-)
Take care!

Both the egret and the snowman looked to be enjoying the sunny warm Florida weather, Diane! Happy New Year!
Now that was a fun walk in your neighbourhood Diane! Have a great week! Hugs. Pam
I enjoyed this cute Egret post.. It was just taking a walk in the neighborhood.. Wishing you and your family a happy, healthy New Year!
Thanks for the tour with your feathered friend. I always enjoy our trips to Florida!!!
How adorable that was. I imagine if I can feel better, finish my PT and do it without surgery, I shall be down in FL next month. I will be coming by train, which should be quite an interesting adventure. Have a Happy Week!
I loved seeing that snowman in the rose bushes! None of that going on here. Pretty neat to have such a gent visit your neighborhood.
Looks like a neighbourhood stalker to me!
Thanks for linking to Mosaic Monday Diane.
Loved the tour! I love the tour guide. So pretty! It is so funny to see green lawns at this time of year!
Loved our tour guide!!

Diane, I thought that bird was just a decoration at first! Boy was I wrong! Love the pretty rose bows on those windows!
You have the most beautiful visitors! He does look very 'snowy' and festive! Great series of photos - they made me smile :) Love the red roses - it is very gray here today. xo Karen
Very cute!
Some lovely whimsy, lots of fun,
Diana
Fun story and a great neighbourhood tour with a beautiful guide.
Enjoyed the tour with your buddy! I would trade you places this coming week...it's supposed to be soooo cold here. Cute post!
It looks WARM!!!!.. that's JOY!...
Diane, I love this! At first I thought the bird was a fake (like some people up here have plastic pink flamingos in their gardens - NO, I'm not one of them! LOL) This is a great series of photos in a land that is wonderfully warm looking in January! Have a great week, friend.
What a great capture of this bird's tour...loved it!
I, too, first thought it was a fake bird;.Love this post.
Someone is investigating the neighborhood. Great pictures.
Ha! That's too funny, he was taking a stroll around wasn't he!? So cute too!! :) Have a wonderful day!! xo Holly
At first I thought the bird was a statue in your yard :) Oh my what a cute post!
Happy New Year Diane.
What a fun tour guide showing us around your neighbourhood!
Great photos.
Shane

Happy New Year, Diane!
Thank you for the lovely tour around your neck of the palms!;))
Those snowmen look perfect next to the red flowering bushes!
Hugs,

I'm back from my little break, and Happy New Year to you, my friend! LOVED this post!! The Egrets are apparently quite at home in the neighborhood.
That looks like the great egret to me, cousin of the snowy egret. What a sight that must have been for you to see that around the neighborhood. The homes are lovely around your area, Diane.
Happy days to you in the new year.

He certainly seems lost! Like a fish out of water, only he is a bird out of water. Have a lovely day!
It still amazes me that you have egrets walking about your neighbourhood! Thanks for the tour.
That was a fun stroll with a pretty bird. Thanks so much for sharing at AMAZE ME MONDAY.
Blessings,
Cindy
Such a cute post. The egret having a look around...:-)
So you have a January birthday too! Happy (early?) birthday to you as well!
