It's a drippy, overcast day at Reflection Lake. The weather forecast last night predicted a small amount of precipitation today and for a change, I think they were right on. We've had a few raindrips, enough to bead on Auntie Violet's windshield. It was enough to chase most of the fishermen away. The couple that are left are inside their tents and I don't see any poles or bobbers out along the shore. The temperature has dropped as well. It is 53 degrees today in contrast to the high seventies it has been the last couple of days.
We have been watching a cute little Black Pheobe diligently catching insects along the shore by our campsite. We've been watching for the Black Crowned Night Herons we saw yesterday, but haven't seen them today (though Forry thinks he may have seen one fly through earlier). There are four Double-crested Cormorants perched on some branches sticking up out of the water on the other side of the lake. There have been a couple of ravens methodically working their way from campsite to campsite checking for any left behind edible garbage.
It's a good day to stay inside watching bullriding and ice skating on TV; doing suduko (Forry, not me!); or reading a good book on my Kindle.
