I am linking up with Skywatch Friday and Good Fences
I hope you can join in on the fun and share your fence scenes and pretty skies.
I heard on the news that the groundhog did NOT see his shadow, now if you can believe him we will have an early spring. I am already wishing it was spring, I seem to wish the time away during the winter months. Our 23 inches of snow is shrinking, the latest day of rain and warmer temps helped to get rid of the white stuff. It is hard to believe on Feb 1st, my son will have been in his own home for two years. Gee, where does the time go?
I am behind sharing some photos, these are more images from our most recent trip to Ocean City in early January. We spent two nights visiting the Delaware shores, Ocean City and Assateague Island, Maryland.
Ocean City, Maryland inlet is a hotspot to see Loons and other seabirds. We also saw a dolphin.
Plenty of Loons around the Ocean City inlet.
A view looking toward the bay
We had a sighting of a large flock of Brant Geese near the inlet.
Pretty view of the sky and reflection and a fence shot at the inlet.
More Loons, we saw 6-8 Loons hanging at the Ocean City Inlet.
It was a cold winter day, a little windy but always nice to have the beach practically to ourselves. We did share the beach with some gulls and pigeons.
Find JOY in the little things. I hope you enjoyed our trip to Ocean City, Md. Thanks for visiting and for the nice comments.

I love going to the beach in winter when DH and I are the only people there and the only sounds are the wind and surf and the cries of the gulls.
ReplyDeleteReady for spring? Me too!! Hope you have a wonderful day!
Wonderful walk in good weather. He was a blue ocean, sandy beach, birds, and there were no people. Regards.
ReplyDeleteA super great collection of what is available at that shoreline, Eileen. Just perfect pix to take me there...thank you!...:)JP
ReplyDelete23 inches of snow? Hope you are still warm and dry!
ReplyDeleteCheers - Stewart M - Melbourne

Have a nice and warm time

ReplyDeleteI had never heard of Brant geese. How wonderful to have an empty beach to explore. The photos are beautiful and make me want to take a road trip. It's been a long time since we visited the east coast.
ReplyDeleteHari OM
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful place! LOVE the 'fence' shot... YAM xx

ReplyDeleteI've never been to Ocean City Beach so I enjoyed the tour. Love the rock at the shorelineand the birds.

ReplyDelete(but I've started on novel #31 and eager to write)
Beautiful area......all of the photos are so nice.....I especially like the one with the gorgeous sun reflecting on the water....Have a wonderful day......

Dimi..
Good morning, I am so enjoying the little things, keeping spirits up during our wintry time, but a good little trip somewhere would be perfect. Your opening photo is just what I'm thinking about! Of course I'd pretty much take any place if it had sunshine! Enjoy your day.
ReplyDeleteAaah, the beach! So wonderful, especially when devoid of crowds of people.
ReplyDeleteSuper shots. It makes me long for summer
ReplyDeleteMB
What a beautiful place to visit. I enjoyed the birds, fences and the pretty blue sky/sun. - It does make me look forward to spring.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, and what a wonderful place to visit. I can almost be there, will give the big wheel a miss, and just enjoy it all, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful images, the Loons are marvelous and sights of everything are superb.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty shots!
ReplyDeleteHi Eileen, Lots of nice shots to enjoy! The first shot like a painting.
ReplyDeleteWhat neat photos with the sun shining! That doesn't always work out but your photos are great! I guess I need to experiment more. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteLove the loons - and the beach looks fabulous!

ReplyDelete23 inches!! We had 34...Hard to believe that it's almost gone..We've been very lucky so far..no ice. Beautiful coastal photos..I love the calming effect of the water...Thanks for sharing..
ReplyDeleteThanks for the map - I was just wondering which part of the coast it was and then I scrolled down to the map. :-)
ReplyDeleteyou have nice sky photos in there, i like the most the photo with sun's reflection. thanks for the visit.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos ! I love the cry of the Loons on the lake in our cottage country as it echos through out the valleys it is so beautiful ! , Thanks for sharing , have good day !
ReplyDeleteA pretty place! My sister and her family used to go to Ocean City quite frequently when they lived in Maryland.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful images!
ReplyDeleteThose sky shots sure are appealing!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots, nothing like the ocean and blue sky coming together to lift spirits and make great photographs.
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying these ocean and beach photos. You always manage to see lots of birds.
ReplyDeleteLovely seashore photos! Glad your snow is melting.
ReplyDeleteWonderful sky shots Eileen with the shining sun and reflections.
ReplyDeleteGreat set of photos, Eileen.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the clear blue skies in each photo - nicely done.
Have a Beautiful Day!
Peace :)
Hello Eileen, I'm all for finding JOY in the little things ;-) That makes life so much nicer doesn't it? Your photos are lovely and I always enjoy waterfront scenes. It looks like a very interesting place to visit. Have a wonderful weekend, xx
ReplyDeleteGreat views, very nice and interesting!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a beautiful location, and great sky shots!!
ReplyDeleteA lovely place to holiday, wonderful frames of sky!
ReplyDeleteLovely images all!!
ReplyDelete'Fruit of the loons under there'
ReplyDeleteSomehow, that just popped into my head!

Wonderful sky shots and sea views, Eileen, must have been a great experience. Thanks for sharing and enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. Have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteThe air looks so crisp and clear. The photo of the sun is stunning! Thank you and have a grand weekend!
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures! Did not know there were great birds there! Been there once, a few years ago... but it was for R&R with cross stitching. I had not really started birding. Any beach is a good destination to me!
ReplyDeleteOcean City is beautiful! Love all your gorgeous shots, especially that sky photo with the seawall going away from you! I will be glad for an early spring, for all my dear friends in colder climes. That will be me next winter...in colder climes! :-)
ReplyDeleteDo you believe me if I say that even if I was born in a sea city - Genoa - and I love sea so much, it's a part of me and of my life, I've never seen the Ocean by real , and I love it .... probably even more !
ReplyDeleteThank you for all this beauty, dearest Eileen, your photographs are always so gorgeous !
May your weekend be filled with joy and wonder, dearest friend
sending love and so dear hugs to you
Dany
Beautiful images! Have a nice weekend:)

ReplyDeleteawww the wharf and rocks remind me of places I've been to here in NZ - thanks for the beautiful photos :-)
ReplyDeleteWow, very nice ! I really like the first photo !
ReplyDeleteHI Eileen, You have some beautiful sky shots there. Love the Brant Geese and the loons as well. I do have to add that I would have been over the moon to see a dolphin. Sorry I've missed many weeks of your critter meme. I just can't seem to catch up but I'll try again tomorrow. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteHello Eileen! Wonderful shots....I love the one of the sun reflecting on the water and all those lovely 'stars'! Hey, were you planning on linking that 'beautiful' photo quote to my Sunday Short & Sweet this week....it qualifies! Do you think it would be better for me to create a linky?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! The sky goes on forever up there.
ReplyDeleteI've been there and it is very scenic! Very nice photos...
ReplyDeleteVery nice, Eileen! I love the loons and the brant! I haven't seen any brant in awhile.
ReplyDeleteWonderful to see these skies. Bright and beautiful cloud formations and wildlife :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat shots, as usual!
ReplyDeleteAnd those with the reflex of the sun... My favorites!
Great work, Eileen!
Happy Sunday, to you and yours!
Ana
Lovely views of the sky and the ocean! Enjoy your Sunday, Eileen!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful images! My goats are in agreement with the groundhog. They have started shedding their under coats.
ReplyDeleteEillen, vim avisar que acabou de entrar um céu teu lá! Obrigada! Lindo dia! bjs, chica
