Fall Weather
Yesterday seemed like the perfect first-day-of-fall. A little bit chilly in the morning, and some warm sunshine in the afternoon. The turtles were soaking up the sun.

Scaups
A friend who lives along Lake Tamarack sent me a email a few days ago to let me know that scaups were flying around and floating on the lake. And, that he called them “oreo ducks”. I had no idea what a scaup was, but I headed for the lake and, sure enough, there was a large group of interesting looking ducks floating out in the lake. “Oreo ducks” does seem like a perfect name for scaups.
They were a good ways from the dam, so these were the best photos I could get. Click here to link to info about these diving ducks.

Coming ’round the mountain
Whenever I get back to Bent Tree, after being out-of-town, I ride around the lake to see the views. The shot below is from late yesterday afternoon. Click here for a photo taken in May. Ever-changing, always beautiful…

Popping Colors
Yesterday’s late afternoon sun highlighted the reds and greens along the lake’s edge.

Bluebird Hangout
October 20, 2019 – Bluebird sitting on a boat stored in the racks
There were a lot of bluebirds hanging out at the boat ramp area late yesterday afternoon. The photos above and below show two of them that stayed still long enough for me to snap pictures.
