Sublime Sunday: Birding & Lunch

in #sublimesunday5 years ago

For Sublime Sunday Hubs and I took a car drive down by the shore at St. Mary’s Bay.

We were checking to see if the Great Blue Heron, who frequents these waters, might be back from the South.

But Blue Heron was no where in sight. It still isn’t warm enough for the magnificent bird to return.

Taking my Canon I looked through the lens to see if any wildlife moving in the area.

These two were looking back at me from across the way. There is still snow near the tree line.

Canada Geese

Canada Geese are big sized birds. These ones either stayed around all winter or came back recently from warmer climates.

Seagulls stay here through all seasons.

The geese along with the seagulls are enjoying the open water at the Bay.

A few warmer days are needed. The ice hasn’t completely gone from the edges of the water or forest.


After the sojourn at the Bay we drove around and stopped for lunch at Clam Diggers Restaurant in Cardigan.

I had the fish and chips and Hubs had the scallop dinner.

Clam Diggers is located with a fanatic view of the Cardigan River. It’s spotless inside and the staff greeted us cordially.

The fish was haddock and very good. Hubs was pleased with a feed of scallops and said they were tasty.


In closing a funky edit of summertime flowers and a cute moth that looked like a butterfly. #funkyedits is inspired by @krazypoet.

That's sounds like a great Sunday. Love the first shot of the geese with the light on the water and them looking at you. Cheers

Hi @tijntje and thanks. Sunday was a fab day all around. Those two geese make me smile and I wanted to sing, “I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me.” 😊

Looks like a lovely day! Now I want to get fish and chips for lunch!

Thanks @goat-girlz. It was really good fish & chips and the batter was nice, not crusty like sometimes.

Beautiful water photos Jo!! Love that edit too! Looks like you and Hubs had a yummy lunch..wish I was there! ;)

Thanks Dee. It was a lovely lunch. Would have loved to had you there. 💕

You are welcome Jo!! 💓

Fish and chips! Yummy!
Your Sunday was beautiful and sublime. :-)
I love that edit. It is so cool.

Thanks Neli @nelinoeva. It was a great day and the fish tasted so fresh and tender. 🎣

Great shots, soon you will see the heron, our Canadian geese stayed all through winter here

Thanks JJ. I’ll keep check for the heron at the bay. He likes to fish for his dinner there. 😊

good luck tracking him down I look forward to seeing shots of him :)

A most enjoyable blog @redheadpei The scenery on your first image is spectacular and your lunch looked delicious. I haven't eaten scallops for ages. You can't beat fresh seafood can you? (U & R)

Thanks so much Trudee @trudeehunter ❤️. Glad you enjoyed it.
Hubs likes his treat of scallops For a special treat. It was really fresh and tasty seafood.

My pleasure Jo. 🌺
