Water Water Everywhere Photo Challenge

Sorry for the inconvenience, but now I realize why I can’t have this as its own page. It needs to be a post.

Today, I am starting a second photo challenge having to do with water. The challenge will be ongoing. Please feel free to post your photos of anything that goes into or has anything to do with water. The only thing I ask is not to post pictures of specific people. This is meant to be more of a scenery/nature post. Please post on your blog and put the link in the comments of this post. Tag with WWE and Water Water Everywhere. You can post anytime and how often you like. I hope everyone enjoys this and thanks for stopping by.

Peregrine Falcon taken from a distance because I was worried he’d fly away.
Same falcon, closer up. He is having supper. He wasn’t going anywhere.

My son and his family were staying at a condo in Orange Beach, Alabama. We stayed in a Holiday Inn Express in Foley, Alabama. (This is beside the point but I would highly recommend this motel. To say that it was cleaner than I left my house is not an exaggeration.) There was a 15 mile drive between the two locations and the slower although much more interesting route took us threw the State Park in Gulf Shores. One day on the drive, I saw a peregrine falcon perched in this tree. But there was lots of traffic and no good place to pull over. So we kept going, and I kept watching to see him again. However, this particular day, we actually turned around and pulled over on the grass on the side of the road so that I could get these pictures. I was so excited because I do not remember ever having seen a peregrine falcon in the wild before, especially not this clearly.
