| Sun is coming up earlier each day and finally getting a little more light in the sky at the start of my walk. April 15, 2019 6:17 AM |
One has to be watching and it helps to know the heron's favorite places in order to spot them for photos. Next 3 pics show what I mean.

...John, you sure get an early start! Now tell me, do you walk clockwise or counter clockwise?
ReplyDeleteThanks Tom, that's a great question. The paved path is divided with a yellow line. Signs ask walkers to stay on the side closest to the Lake and for people on wheels to stay on the side away from the Lake. The signs say walkers may go in either direction but that wheels should go only counter clockwise. I have read that people get upset by folks who don't obey the park signs, and, yes, it annoys me too. However, Park Authorities say the path suggestions are not legal requirements and enforcement is up to "peer pressure." How about that? :-) Now, to answer your question, I do walk in the walk lane and usually clockwise. :-)
DeleteOur world is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThat heron is tough to spot!
ReplyDeleteI saw the heron in the second picture but was sure glad you put the third one in to reassure me that I was seeing it. I'm watching the Notre Dame cathedral burning to the ground on TV. It's terrifying and emotionally draining to watch. :-(
ReplyDeleteHello John! April is going by quickly. The heron is a daily sighting at the lake, they are a great bird to see on your walk. Lovely images. Enjoy your day, wishing you a great new week ahead!
ReplyDeleteWe saw a heron 'posing' on Saturday. Elegant.
ReplyDeleteI suppose that one of these days you'll start your walk with the sun up!
ReplyDeleteHi John, how long is your walk and is that a circle around the lake? My Steve is very familiar with Green Lake, but I only know it from passing it when we went to visit his grandma. She lived on 11th NE in the U District. What a lovely place to walk :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful picture once again. I di see the Heron,even in the first picture.
ReplyDeleteGreat sky in your first shot
ReplyDeleteHi John. Boy- you sure are setting a cracking pace with the Walking about Green Lake and keeping your Daily Posts going...good going there! I'm having leg problems at the momement- seems that some weeks ago an Elevator Door closed onto my right leg- it has been giving me some trouble ever since...My Doctor prescribed CELEBREX ( Anti-Inflamatory) yesterday- Well I'm completely allergic to it! Fortunate my Pharmasist gave me some Anti-Histamines to SAVE me! ..cannot take a trick at the moment. Best Wishes. KEV.
