Labor Day Post A

Today has been a wonderful "off day" as the fiance put it ;o)

Our walk around the lake with Fio made me appreciate our beautiful lake and remember all the awesome nature sightings we've had here....

Today we saw a turtle, some sort of diving bird, dragonflies, and of course our friendly neighborhood ducks.

Earlier this week we identified a Green Heron-it was very exciting for us! We went from a "baby heron" to a Night Heron to an American Bittern and finally to the real thing! It was a wee bit romantic thinking of our retirement years ahead as an older cute couple birding together!


We've also spotted a beaver, rats, some sort of swimming muskrat thing our local pair of eagles and a variety of other waterfowl including Bufflehead and American Coots.

I'm glad to have these moments where I pause and genuinely appreciate my "backyard." :o)
