There's nothing like the red of a freshly tilled field. Although I have lived away from PEI for a long while, I always think soil looks strange unless it is the red colour of home.
A cormorant surprised me by popping his head up out of the water after, presumably, diving for fish. He took off and I caught a few photos of his take-off, which was welcome since the Great Blue Heron I had initially hoped to snap had flown away moments before.
The aforementioned heron had flown further out to join a friend in the hunt for some tasty fish. You can spot him in the centre of the photo. Hoping for a better shot of him next time!
Last but not least - my two favourite barns! I love these two random little barns, nestled in the middle of a large hayfield. I photograph them often (They even appear in the header I made for my sister Rosalyn's blog), and I suspect they will feature in some outfit posts over the summer.
When I was travelling the Island a couple of weeks ago with a touring author, showing her the sights to see throughout PEI's picturesque countryside, I discovered (and re-discovered) so many beautiful parts of my beloved isle that I promised myself I would have to return to photograph properly - so look forward to some future Island Snap posts, coming soon!
