The early birds get to watch the sun rise and then fish away the morning before the lake becomes busy with boats and swimmers.  This is my favorite time to visit the lake because it’s so peaceful and relaxing.

I accomplished a bucket list item recently when I visited Conowingo Dam in Maryland to see and photograph bald eagles.  Late Fall is the prime eagle viewing time at the dam, but I was certainly not disappointed during my visit.  There were bald eagles everywhere!  Unfortunately, I don’t have any great shots of eagles diving into the river for fish up close and personal as they were all pretty far away.  BUT, I was in awe seeing that many in one place at one time!  Take a look at this image and see how many eagles you can spot!  I count 13!  Maybe you’ll find some that I didn’t see!

I would love it if ALL trees had pink, purple and white flowers in Spring before the leaves emerged.  Sort of like Fall, only in reverse.

How nice to be able to look out of the windows of this home and watch the snow geese.  What a perfect view!

The Snow Geese had been flying back and forth between the lake and the nearby fields all afternoon.  Their change in location was very much inspired by a passing Great Blue Heron or Hawk.  Just before sunset, they were all in the fields right near the road.  I couldn’t resist a few backlit images and the warm color of the setting sun before I headed for home.  The latest count from Middle Creek shows an INCREASE in numbers of geese, so there is still time to head on out for a ‘gander’ at the geese before they fly to their northern breeding ground!
