This week I walked around the lake again, in the company of good friends. The weather has been sunny, but breezy and not very warm, but perfect for walking. The lake was very still which made for beautiful reflections in the water.
These two Canada Geese were busy with their morning hygiene routine.
A little bit further down the lake another Canada Goose was swaggering along the dock.
My favorite tree... crooked, of course, and with lots of Poison Oak growing up its trunk.
We thought this tree has a face and looks like a rhino.
Along Fisherman's Trail we saw this beauty, a Black-Crowned Night Heron.
There are so many beautiful places at the lake. We are so very fortunate to have this here.
When we left, the Canada Geese were still busy with preening.











Lovely to be at the lake
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photographs around the lake, what a lovely spot.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, that tree does have a face which looks like a rhino.
Enjoy the coming weekend.
All the best Jan
I truly love this post. A walk with friends in a very beautiful place. You can't go wrong with that. Thank you for sharing with FFO and have a lovely weekend.
ReplyDelete...Carola, I love your blue and calming images! And the gnarled trees are an added bonus.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful loved all the photos
ReplyDeleteLooks pretty idyllic!
ReplyDeleteWow, der Heron hat ja einen sehr langen Schnabel ;-) Auf den ersten Blick sah das so aus! Darf man in dem See schwimmen? In unserem ist das leider verboten. Also es gibt welche, aber die sind weiter weg und naja.. hier ist es eh meist zu kalt... Hab einen schönen Samstag (ich bin mal wieder "zu spät")
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful area, Carola. The Canada Geese are taking so much time with their toilette because they realize how important it is for us to always present a clean, positive image to the world. They have taken this simple truth to heart! Copious hugs - David
ReplyDeleteThis lake is really beautiful and it looked like a terrific day for your walk. So blue with that practically cloudless sky!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, dear Carola. Thank you so much for sharing.

ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely spot to walk, Carola, and the birds are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYou do have a wonderful area for your walks, Carola, and the reflections were wonderful. I especially liked seeing the Black-Crowned Night Heron.
