On the viewing platform and looking easterly over the Cranberry Marsh, Whitby
The marsh is still fairly quiet - the July DULLdrums. A few Great Blue Herons and Great Egrets have arrived for summer fishing but many birds are still at their breeding grounds way far north.
Looking southeasterly
The water is high this year. We've had quite a lot of rain, although nowhere near as much as we had in June.
Looking southerly on a beautiful July afternoon
The boats are on Lake Ontario just beyond the marsh.
I am linking to Good Fences HERE

There use to be a sign at the marsh describing it as Canada's Amazon. You might have knowledge of this, but next time you there go west on Victoria St. to Halls Rd. and go south. You will find trails on the east side of the road that have a very short walk to viewing platforms. Enjoy.
I love the peak out onto the lake in the last shot.
Nice fence and I also like especially the last shot.
I love the view of the marshes and the sailboat on the lake. Lovely fence scenes! Enjoy your day!
That last view is amazing! Love the color and texture of the fence.
When it comes to birding...July is truly DULLdrums, I agree. Love the colors of the fencing around the platform.
I sure wish these scenes were in my viewfinder!
Beautiful, peaceful, a wonderful cranberry morning on Cranberry Marsh. :-) The boats on Lake Ontario remind me that I have yet to get up to Duluth this summer to visit Lake Superior. Love the Great Lakes!
pretty views. (i fixed your link - it was missing an l on html at the end. :))
What a fabulous spot for viewing nature and relaxing.
gorgeous views. so crisp. ( :
It always a bonus to get a sailboat in the frame.
Beautiful scenes, and I especially love the last photo with the sailboats in the distance.
What a great view. Thanks for sharing.
That looks like a great spot to just...observe things.
Cranberry Marsh is a strange name...

Such a pretty area, EG! Very peaceful.
Beautifully captured!
The marshes are great source in sustaining groundwater and inviting birds. Nice captures and beautiful skies.
With that blue sky and a few clouds,it looks like a perfect day to be out there.

Lovely views there even in the DULLdrums.
Awesome views of the lake! Maybe the birds will arrive soon
What lovely scenes with fences. That last shot with the Sailboats is so delightful.
What a great view!
A fabulous spot, EG!
Gorgeous views across the lake! I love seeing your blue skies, over here in N. Ireland we have seen so little of them so far this summer.
Have a great weekend!
Boa tarde!
Lindo e encantado espaço...parabéns.
Depois dar uma passadinha no meu novo blog e fique à vontade pra seguir…bijus!!!!!
Wonderful. I love marshes, I could spend hours there!
Such beautiful photos. Especially with the lake in the back.
LOVE the angle of the first shot. Getting closer to me:) Nice fences and shots. Hug B
That's a really big marsh. I can imagine how lively it would be when the dulldrums are over and the birds have come back.
A beautiful view and such a nice peek at the sail boat!!
Great views.
Do cranberries grown in Cranberry Marsh? I do hope so!
This means the birds will be back soon. :)
Great pics for the theme. I like the compositions in these. The first one with lines makes it interesting.
All three gorgeous vies ffromthe viewing deck
a deck in metal, must be unusual :) Nice place to watch wildlife :)
