t The other day, my driver husband had time to take me our city park;
I DID have a big luck finding a wild heron there ♪ I couldn't wait to show you pictures I took; These Sweet flag (Acorus calamus) and Iris reminds us Japanese that the rainy season is around the corner. And they were my late mother's favorite flower:)
I was so happy that this sweet Heron appeared for me♡♡♡ I wished to take the shots that he flew away, but just ready to take off one; |
Pond spread in front of the old Gazebo; |

ReplyDeleteHi Miyako san. That heron is very cute! Such lovely pictures of the heron with sweet flag flowers. I love their gentle colors :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day, Miyako san xoxo
Hello Miyako, they are such delicate colours of Iris and Flags - how lovely for you to see so many, especially when they hold dear memories for you.
ReplyDeleteI've never photographed a Heron and so it is always exciting when I see them in other blogs and yours is no exception. A chance meeting and he stayed long enough for you :D)
I love the heron in amongst the gorgeous iris!
ReplyDeletei just love the herons! so glad you got photos of him! the irises are wonderful! such beautiful color combinations in the first type and papery, delicate in the second type.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! I love nature and your photos are just wonderful.
ReplyDeleteSuch peaceful beauty throughout.
ReplyDeleteAh, you got the Great Blue Heron! He's a beauty, as are the gorgeous flowers. Enjoy your company!! Have a great day. :)
ReplyDeleteThe Great Blue Heron pictures are lovely; especially the one where he's about to take off. Beautiful flowers too. (Iris are my daughter's favorite flowers.)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers Miyako and great you managed to capture the Heron.
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful photos and a very beautiful place. Like the flowers.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful photography and the heron is a wonderful capture.
ReplyDeleteI too love the Iris, it is a lovely flower. And that shot of the blue heron is great. When I was young blue herons nested in one of the trees in the park where we went to play, we would look for them arriving every season.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
love from New Zealand,

Nice photos. I love Herons. They're so graceful and they often linger long enough for me to snap a nice photo of them.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are beautiful! Lucky you with the Heron shot. I chase one around that likes my brother' pond, but it always escapes.
ReplyDeleteI love irises and your photos are beautiful. I have purple and yellow ones blooming now in my front garden. Great blue herons are such interesting birds to watch. Every part of them is odd, but altogether they are beautiful!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful captures. I love the shot of the heron with the irises in the background - gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place to walk around and see the marvelous flowers and Heron. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteHello, Miyako, thank you for linking up your beautiful herons to my critter party.. Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful colours, and a lovely looking Heron.
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard these flowers called flags in ages. My mom and mother in law called them flags. And your images are stunning!!! A big plus is to have a heron strolling through to add to the beauty of it all.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for linking up this weekend.
Lovely photos. That heron set the flowers off so nicely.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the heron! And the flowers are just gorgeous! I've joined the bird watching over at Anni's and am so happy to be here!
