The other morning we biked on the Sakatah Singing Hills Bike Trail in Faribault. To our delight, we were gifted with several bird and animal sightings.
As we drove to the bike trail, we passed an egret near a pond, standing tall and beautiful.
A little later I saw a majestic eagle flying overhead. I never tire of seeing eagles.
On the trail, we noticed a pretty bluebird going into its house, several red-wing blackbirds flying by, and heard cardinals singing.
We stopped to watch a lone sandhill crane look at us and then walk across a field…I wonder where his mate and friends were? (Two days later we saw a pair of Sandhill cranes in a different field.)
We saw several bunnies darting in and out of the grasses along the bike trail. We spotted a “spotted” doe, and saw a snake slithering across the trail (not too thrilled about that!)
As we passed a farm field, I noticed Holstein cows running down an incline in the fenced in farmyard. That was an unusual sight…running cows.
All this time we’re pedaling our bikes down the paved trail, getting some exercise as nature put on a show for us, complete with music from the birds serenading.
Looks like you had a very nice biking tour, with a lot to see🤩
It was a nice ride.
How was your ride in the new boat???

Lovely in every way. Thank you for taking me along on your bike ride.
My pleasure. It was great to see so much wildlife.
You had a real nauture-palooza, always refreshing and regenerating.
Yes, I agree, nature is refreshing and regenerating.
Those pics were terrific! Doesn’t it always make your heart sing? The Creator God!
Yes, I am always delighted to see any kind of bird or animal or flower or cloud or whatever, in nature. 😉
It’s one of my joys of living on the lake. Nature is always ready to put on a delightful show! So special.
I’m so glad you have your happy place on the lake. It’s beautiful!
