Sat with Cris some this morning at his house. He's still pretty under the weather, but we had a nice visit.
There was plenty of cloud cover early in the afternoon, so I figured the birds might be fooled into flying early as is often the case on gray days. Dad didn't feel like tagging along, so I grabbed Flip and the Mule and hunted Edward's side. It's plenty thick...lily pads, cattails, bullrush, and other stuff...but with enough open water for landing. We went early and sat for two hours. A few birds came in before sunset, but set in way out in front...too far for a shot. Got some nice pics around sunset as the early season ended.
I looked over my shoulder as I latched the gate on the way out and saw dozens of woodies coming to roost. Suckers always arrive twenty minutes after legal time...oh well. It was still good to get out with the dog, and the sunset was beautiful.
