Findley Lake 7/19/09

Again a late start which meant we were taking the boats out of the water in the dark - almost 9:30. The weather and temperature were so nice for mid-summer that it was hard to want to get out. Nice that it is easy and quick to throw the boats on the trailer and tighten the straps - easy even in the dark. Not a great evening for wildlife. Most of our usual heron must be elsewhere. No owls - though we did hear their screech in the distance. A raccoon peeking from out of tree roots. One big kingfisher that kept teasing us - but was hard to get a sharp photo. We aren't going to complain given the comfortable conditions.
