Spring has Sprung! A small flock of Buffelhead ducks landed at the lake to take a break before lifting off and heading north on their spring migration. I will miss seeing their bubble gum feet!

Jordan Lake. This pair of bufflehead ducks were floating along serenely. They took a quick rinse and shook their feathers out. I blinked. They had launched! No idea what startled them.
BTW at First Nest the bald eagle incubation continues toward hatching.
Last Day of November, 2022
Jordan Lake. Well, it is the last day of November and a windy soggy day at that. So, I thought I would try to brighten up our world a little bit. Here is a flight of bufflehead ducks that Captain Doug and I found, bright in the sunshine of yesterday afternoon, to lighten the mood of this mid-week day.
