I spent a couple hours at the lake this morning.....went to get sunrise and was disappointed, but then the birds picked up and had a great morning.

Down at the lake, I had a good variety of birds and they were quite vocal, but not really cooperative with getting their picture taken. I had a surprise visit of a baby beaver in the canal that swam around a bit and posed for a couple pictures. I saw several Flickers moving about, first ones I have seen down there this fall.

Came back out toward the ponds and had a great variety of birds in the oak and dogwood trees and had several flickers land within five feet of me and let me get a couple before they took off again.

A good morning out with the birds.
