Morning Walks...

Almost every morning we walk Buddy to the bridge.  I take pictures along the way if anything catches my interest. These photos were taken on different days.

 

This is right outside our driveway, looking east (the bridge is to the west). Sunrise was very pretty, with the pink clouds and blue skies.

 

A lovely golden sunrise, taken just about halfway to the bridge over an adjacent meadow.

 

At the creek, there's a beaver family, they've been there for years.  We rarely see the beaver, but lately, the animal's been a little less shy and I've taken some decent pictures. Here he completely ignored us, and continued to eat. 

 

I don't believe this is the beaver lodge, it's just a pile of sticks gathered together. The lodge is situated under the bank on the opposite side.

 

The beaver is now swimming towards the lodge. The pile of sticks is to it's left. By the way, the pile of sticks is now gone from the creek a week or so later.

 

A turtle rose to the surface to check us out.

 

A raccoon runs across the meadow and into a drainage pipe to hide, probably from us, despite our distance from it.
