It's been a wacky couple of days, too many hours spent going through piles of paperwork. The scanned pictures I promised will have to be on hold for a day or two.
So, here's something pretty to look at in the meantime. This pair of trumpeter swans is living in a small lake between here and town. It looks like one of them has a numbered tag on it's leg (not visible here). They were being pretty vocal with eachother. Here's hoping they'll settle in and nest there so we can watch their family throughout the summer.
There's been a great blue heron circling around high above our place squaking like crazy much of the day. I guess Spring finally is here, as it never really feels like it to me until the air is filled with bird's songs from before dawn until after dusk.
Be back soon.
