I saw something special this morning on the way to Fort Maitland Park. Waiting for a break in the rush hour traffic on 17-92, a Smart car, painted Green and Gold, with a cheese wedge bigger than the car, on the roof, went by. I gave it a thumbs up, the driver honked. Go Pack Go!
As I continue this Tale, Saturday, the Packers still have the best record in the NFL ;). Back to Thursday morning, I launched at 8:45.
I kind of wish this great egret was not where it was. Because, when I came around a bend, the eagle, which had left the tree with the osprey nest a few moments before, took off. I had planned on a short, easy paddle. But seeing the eagle land on a tree on another point in the distance, I had to paddle past the Minnehaha canal to try for another photo. Teased me again, taking off just as I got in camera range. This time, to far for me to follow on a work day.
I thought the above anhinga had a crab. Closer observation shows its a wad of cloth or string, or something. Hope she's able to get it off.
Shared the lake with a fisherman.
Landed at 10:45.
