Today was for the birds

Posted on January 5, 2012 by The Driver

We’re parked on a lake, after all, so we count water birds among our friends and neighbors.

This loon spent the afternoon and evening with a mate….each of them diving, diving, diving. I sure wouldn’t want to be a fish….that’s no Donald Duck bill!

And the heron….what grace in flight after watching it stand so awkwardly at the water’s edge!

Doug,
I wanted you to know that Todd Calaway’s infant son passed away early this morning. He was born Wednesday. I thought you should know.
