Waiting for the Ice to Leave

Any day now the ice will leave our bay and not return again until November/ December. Usually it goes around the 22nd of April. But as you can see from the photo, it's still here!

Warm weather over the next few days will send it on its way.

The photo was taken of the sunrise this morning, Good Friday.

Deer at Beauview April 2, 2011

I have seen Deer on the lake and at the side of the road but this is the first time this year that I've seen them come onto our property.

I saw my first robin yesterday. I have seen Canada Geese on the lake ice wondering why it hasn't melted yet! (last year it melted early) Chipmunks have scurried around outside the cottages. A fox ran across the road in front of me on Brunel Road.

...Lots of wildlife and birds to see at this time of year. Some snow in the background makes a great photo opportunity and there's no leaves on the trees to block your view.
