The birdless ‘bird sanctuary’

We stopped at this bird sanctuary on the parkway in Northern Virginia, just across the river from DC, since we thought we might see some birds to photograph, but we couldn’t find a single one.

Happy New Year to all my Pbase friends! posted earlier:

It is pretty nonetheless. I really like the framing of the pond. V

Sometimes that happens. They are active at different times of day.

Nice entrance to a nice water view the birds probably showed up after you left that used to happen to me often.
Nice clouds and excellent resolution.

Looks like a beautiful place, but unfortunately no bird.
Maybe in the spring V

It’s so nice on a freezing January day to see a peaceful summer scene. Sorry it was birdless for you.

It truly is a sanctuary, then. Free from human annoyances!

Well if they do show up they should be happy with the place :)) A lovely frame here, Helen. V

But the sanctuary is nice, lush and almost tropical.
