Broken Bridge

FullSizeRender.jpg

This photo was taken about 2 weeks ago, so mid-February 2019. The Stillwater River was up, but it was a beautiful day. I love fluffy, white clouds. We did not see much wildlife. Maybe one woodpecker, but nothing else. This bridge is closed and chained off. It is just old, and broken.

Clear Water, Spring Day

We hiked at this creak earlier this week. I was amazed at how clear the water was. We even some some new green growth. It’s spring, folks. (Now, let see what happens tomorrow).

Scenic Views

On Friday morning, Teresa and i hiked at River’s Edge. This site is maintained by Brunner Nature Center. We didn’t see much wildlife, but it was a great hike. The views were super cool, but hard to photograph. Here is one shot of the Stillwater River from the trail. While the trees blocked a lot of the beauty of the river, it was still a great hike.

New on Old

We saw this nest at Big Woods this week. There is actually an older nest, likely from last year, with new material put on top. I assume someone is moving in, and wanted a remodel. The open house will be later this fall.

Loud Kingfisher

FullSizeRender.jpg

This is a Belted Kingfisher. There was a pair of them, but this one was flying around and making a lot of noise. If you have ever heard one, you know what I am talking about. At fist, I thought it was upset about our presence, but within a few minutes, I saw the real threat.There was a large, Red-tailed Hawk flying around, clearly looking for dinner.

Kingfishers nest in riverbanks. They are a really cool bird, and I have photographed them many times. I could not get a photo of one that was not flying around this time. Maybe the next time.
