Tuesday, August 19: Pelican Pond
Aug. 29th, 2025 07:30 pmWe went on just a short walk last Tuesday. We were going to go to a movie, so wanted just something easy and quick to get out for a little bit. So, Pelican Pond it was. No pelicans, though.
Over on the left, a couple ducks, then a couple large turtles, and so many cormorants! Especially love the one with wings spread.
We did see the first monarch we've seen this year!
Another shot of the monarch!
The cormorants when we first walked by.
When we came back after turning around, there were suddenly more!
And next to the cormorant branch, a nice big turtle, and a duck showing off the very nice purple in her wing.
We also saw a little snake and a bunch of other birds. It was nice to get out for a bit, even if we didn't want to do very much.
