Evening Walk

The Coot Patrol
Tonight after work my wife and I went for a hike out at the lake, we stopped at several places, left the truck and walked. The trails at Bone Creek Reservoir are starting to green up, the trees are still leafless allowing you to watch closely for deer who watch you just as closely. we did not see any but plenty of waterfowl out on the lake.

With all the rain we have had as well as the snow melt, little streams all have water flowing down to the lake.
