March 8 – Ed

We had a wonderfully warm day yesterday so Lise and I went out for a quick look at local lakes. Waterfowl, and some other species, are starting to migrate through. Unfortunately, with the warm temperatures came a wicked wind.  I mean a really fierce wind, barely able to stand up wind. Lake Lansing, our local bathtub lake, had waves on it. Usually waves on Lake Lansing come from the yahoos on jet skis burning off some testosterone.

Using the scope was almost impossible. Lise even tried to use it inside the van. The only new species we got was ring-necked duck. Still, even with the wind one really can’t complain about a 60 degree day in early March.
