Pelicans,Robins and Loon

It seems that spring has finally arrived in southern Manitoba.
I hope this is not just a teaser.
The birds on my yard and elsewhere have been very busy feeding.

I was sitting outside enjoying the beautiful weather,when a fight broke out.
These two Robins did not seem to like each other.

The other day I spent some enjoyable time at our local lake.
I had seen the  Pelicans and all the action,but didn't know at first what was going on.
I soon realized that they were fishing.You can also see some Double-crested Cormorants among them.
These guys were just waiting for a free lunch,the Pelicans were doing all the work.

Her is just another shot of the action.

I spotted at least four Common Loons on the lake,but they did not come very close to shore.This is about the best picture I could get and it is heavily cropped.

I leave you with a path of stars over the lake.


Thought for today:
Let the beauty of the wild leave footprints on your heart.
