Day 181 - 30th June 2014 - Moth, Iris' and Piping Plovers.

Here we are at the end of another month. Back to work today, then the next 2 off. Holidays during the week aren't that bad. It will be like another weekend in the middle of the week. Going to be a busy week even if it is a short one - Cruise Ship is docking in Shelburne for the day on Thursday. Exercise Class tonight - I probably need it badly, have been eating too much junk this weekend.
Sunday was a great day - warm and sunny again. We took in the breakfast at our Fire hall in the morning, then home to do some work around. I went for my jaunt around the hood and friends from Upper Clyde stopped for a visit. Late afternoon we headed to the beach to catch the tide going out. Great walk and the best part of the trip was seeing three Piping Plover chicks. Oh wow they were cute. Met another birder, nice to put a face to a name.
 This beautiful Hyalophora cecropia moth was on the side of the hall when we went to breakfast.
 Mom Spotted Sandpiper has moved her chicks closer to the beach. I even saw Dad hanging around.
A field of Iris'.
 Wild roses.
 My beach bum!

Saw a few Willets too.







Enjoy your day!
