The weather was perfect today for boating, with no wind at all:
Last time I was boating in 2008 there was NO dock because the lake was so low. So this is a huge improvement.
When we first arrived, the ducks came out of the water to greet us. Here they’re having a powow, discussing what to do since we didn’t bring any duck food.
They decided to get back in the water and this black little “duck” or whatever it is joined them:
If you know what these black birds are, please let us know!
They don’t have webbed feet and or a duck beak and they dive extensively.
Just about all the other boaters had food for the ducks and here the ducks are begging for more crackers:
We also saw some kind of crane, but the pics didn’t turn out. It looks like it will be a while till we get another warm day, it sure was nice today. Can’t wait for spring!
