Cycling and nature

A smooth and picturesque path is a welcome sight and all the more so if you are on a bicycle.

If you pedal at a leisurely pace you get to see different activities like children participating in games

While passing a tennis court, I saw these balls strewn on the court and thought the second picture would be a good one as an advertisement shot for the ball manufacturer. (I did not put it there)

The changing colours of the trees is another sight especially if you are around at the right time of the spring season.

After crossing this narrow bridge I noticed many red winged black bird in the bulrushes.

If you are lucky (and have some patience) you can capture them having a quick bath in a rivulet, as can be seen in the video.

Saw this Grackle on a tree. The common Grackle has a iridescent appearance on their head, especially males. They spread their fantail when making their bird call.

While observing the aves on the tree top, don't miss to appreciate the yellow carpet along the sidewalk.

Obeying the traffic rules applies to cyclists too.

One last shot of nature...... the green against the blue sky

Recorded my 11 km ride on Strava. To my surprise I found that Strava works even without a net connection. Great.
