Saturday's Critters ~ October 30, 2015

A collection of  critter photos taken down at the beach recently.



I don't know what all the commotion was but there were swarms of birds in the sky.
There were more than this but I didn't have a chance to capture them. they were moving too quickly for me.


This nice dog had lots of fun watching the water and digging a hole in the sand for his ball. His owner was relaxing with a book.


This was a smaller swarm of black birds. I think they are crows.  The black colour looks so nice against such a beautiful blue sky.



The birds perched atop a few trees before flying off again a few minutes later. 
Boy did they make a racket as they called to one another as they flew off.
I often wonder what it is they are telling one another. 
Since they made racket in their landing and their leaving, I assume they were
cawing about where to land and when to leave.

Hello!:) There are indeed a lot of birds in the sky and you captured both the dog and the birds very well. I wish I could understand bird talk too!:))

I'm seeing birds everywhere these days -- in mass. Must be a seasonal thing. LOVE the dog/beach photo! Oh, to be on a beach right now!

Crows are very intelligent and sociable creatures. I'm sure they were exchanging news and information.

nice day for a walk on the beach, I think the dog is happy too. He looks not disturbed by the swarm of birds.

I get nervous when I see a flock of them in the trees cawing away. I have been attacked by them in the past. Not sure why. Great shots!

The dog is beautiful. The birds made me think of Hitchcock's film. Enjoy your day!
