Its been too long.  I’m sorry to have been away so long.  But, it is finally spring at the lake.  These were taken two weeks ago, Mother’s Day weekend.  I hope these are the beginning of a great summer at the lake.

Its kind of a photo-dump, but here ya go.

Lots of ducks on the lake.  This one was suddenly in a hurry to get across the lake.

Spring time.  Time to build nests.

Swans and I haven’t always gotten along (long story), but this one and its mate gave me wide berth.

Great to see the turtles out sunning themselves.

I took a quick trip up Horton’s Creek where there were lots of these marsh marigolds.

Good to see the loons back.  This one still had its winter colors.

I chased this spotted sandpiper down the lake shore until it landed here.

There were lots of turtles.  I think there are 15 turtles in a couple of these photos.  How many can you count?

This was one of the two eagles we saw that morning.  A mature eagle soared overhead and this young one watched us from a tree.

Spring is here!
