Title: Smoky Mountains Trip
Post by: Patti from Kentucky on 20-Nov-11, 10:12:50 PM
I'm trying to catch up on photo albums (this makes me only five months behind)...

Here's a link to some photos Jeane and I took during our annual Memorial Day visit to the Smokies: http://photos.bellhanley.com/Weekend-Fun/Smokies-2011 (http://photos.bellhanley.com/Weekend-Fun/Smokies-2011)

There's only one bird, but there are several nice wildflowers.  We have a favorite trail there that we hike on almost every trip; a bonus is that there is a cliffside Peregrine scrape.  We heard those lovely Peregrine voices for much of our hike, and got several nice air shows by a newly fledged juvenile sailing out to meet an incoming adult.  No photos, however.  The nest isn't visible from the trail (it's way up on a cliff that is blocked by a rock overhang, and I was too busy gawking during the air shows to get my camera out.

No snacks necessary; this is a fairly short album by my standards. :D
