Lakes Maitland, Nina, and MInnehaha

Underway at 9:08



After too many osprey nests to count, Sunday, on Lake Norris, the Lake Maitland nest.  At least the nest on the west end of the Lake.




Into the canal

Lake Minnehaha











Saw more turtles than usual on these lakes.


 Green heron on Lake Nina


 Great egret finds a bite


Landed just before 11.  First paddle in the newly patched kayak.  Stayed dry. It should, for a hundred fifty bucks.   Favorite paddle is still taking in water.  I only taped one blade-shaft connection, it would appear water comes in both ends.
Salt water will be coming in Saturday.  Wherever I stop on my way to Key West for a 3 day weekend.

Well, I tried to allow Anonymous postngs. As soon as I did, I had the same problem with the same person/spammer posting comments. One jerk spoils it for all. So,you'll need to register to post a comment.
