We had a nice walk around Silver Lake, in Belmar back on April 20th...
looking for ducks, birds...and other wildlife,
I shared some of the critter images with my Saturday Critters post...you can find those here.
I found this really beautiful, well maintained Butterfly Garden at one end of the lake.
The Daffodils were gorgeous...
and they had a pretty butterfly bench right next to the garden.
This was butterfly station #29 , there are apparently 50 stops similar to this one in Belmar.
I need to get some more information on the other 49 stops, they will be in my future.
There is a website for checking and getting more information.
We saw this stunning heron that didn't want to move an inch.
I waited a long time and he honestly never mover.
Getting fresh air and spending my time in nature,
- win, win -

interesting garden with lovely Daffodil.....
Heron waits for food... may be.
I asked my husband if he had ever been to Silver Lake and he couldn't recall visiting, but I suspect he is wrong. It looks like an enjoyable day in nature and the heron was a bonus too!
The heron wing colour is amazing. Lovely day!
That's a beautiful butterfly bench.
Wonderful butterfly garden. Love the heron, such a beautiful bird. I also love your pretty blue blouse, such a nice color. Enjoy your Spring!
Thank you for taking us along on this walk, such pretty sights you saw. I loved the one of you sitting on the butterfly bench in your pretty blouse.
A lovely walk and what a patient bird! I am sure a child will be thrilled to find the butterfly shell.
