Out back this evening.

Nothing in Audubon. Must be a new species? I will call it the “Limited Lakeside duck”.

 

Have a couple dozen Hooded Mergansers visiting.

 

These males are so cool.

 

And they nest in trees, I thought only the Wood ducks did?

 

I got an Otter here. I tried sneaking up but he surfaced behind me and snorted at me. It’s like five foot long.

 

Kingfisher

 

I’ve got a hundred geese visiting.

 

The roost.this is only half of them.

 

I save one goose with a snapping turtle on its foot and it brings all its friends. Must be two hundred!

 

There’s about 500. And a bunch already flew out to the fields.This is the Atlantic Flyway.

 

The geese were here for one night. Rolled South.
A few Ruddies checking out the real estate.
I think they eat scum off the bottom.

 

Wow, what a beautiful day. Started off with a four wheel brake job. Road motorcycles(it’s been over a year), and about fifty Buffleheads flew in!

 

California Honeysuckle.

 

I’m getting some dam improvements done.

 

That's one dam high dam price!

 

Abutment needs 7 inches of gravel on top. Hydrology is good there is a principle and emergency spillway.

 

I caught six trout.

 

Not out back but close.

 

I think someone died!

 

I think theres a dead body in the lake!

 

I get my drinking and bathing water from this lake.

 

We just had a fire mission here. The 155's were coming in hot!

 

I cant explain how important a life preserver is!

 

Welp, I guess in 3 days they will float to the top?

 

I think they may have recovered her. Everybody rolled there was like 3 different jurisdictions here.

 

Still looking.

 

Dive team.

 

Sonar.
