Black Mountain

The greening of the mountains from Tanbark Ridge overlook, elevation 3175 feet, Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina. The road seen in upper left is the parkway as it continues northeast. Can you see the little houses, including my favorite, the red roofed one?

Watercolor tones - Animal week

Some mallards and what I've called wood ducks for years.  But I think they are something else.  Do you know?

Sorry I didn't get better pictures, they were kind of shy...this being the time of day people walk their dogs around the lake...or maybe just siesta time for them.


OK, I'll take my real camera on my next walk at the lake!

The minute I came down the bank, the wood duck took off...leaving me with mallards close by.

He's hiding behind the leaves of this bush...and what a pretty bird he is.  I'll keep trying.
