    What an incredible day on the lake … coyotes, donkeys, eagles,ospreys, snow geese, herons, egrets, osprey, grebes, shore birds and more. The lake is up another two or three feet from last week and that allowed me to find shallow water to get stuck in where a couple of weeks ago the land was dry. Not too bad and I think we only had to pole our way to deeper water three times today. As long as I have at least 15 inches of water under the hull I am okay … I push until I only have a few inches though.

    Feeding habits seem to have changed with the higher water and the osprey were wading in the water near the shore and getting fish that are moving into the grasses and bushes that were high and dry just days ago.

    This osprey took off right at me, and he has that thousand yard stare looking right through me. The wings continued upwards and about a half second later he was airborne. Awesome and I got more than fifty shots of the takeoff … this was my favorite as he was looking right at or through me.

    Last time on the lake until early to mid December … the pelicans and more northern waterfowl and birds should be down on the lake by then … first I have to get through the next few weeks, but it will happen and I have several thousand photos from the last few weeks to go through, so that will keep me occupied.

    Have a beautiful day and keep smiling and breathing.

    Cheers,

    The joy of dawn, and peace abides with me;
    And though I know that I again shall see
    Dark fear with withered hand approach my sleep,
    More sure am I when lonely night shall flee,
    At dawn the sun will bring good cheer to me.

    Compassionate Sedona?
    By Tommy Acosta
    Sedona is known throughout the world as a spiritual destination point where the land and those who live upon it march to the beat of a different drummer. Compassion. Love. Inclusivity and enlightenment are pillars upon which this community is sustained. Yet, something happened a few days ago that made me question if this is really true. I was at dinner at a local restaurant with a fellow community resident, whom I had always thought to be one of the most compassionate people in Sedona. Quite off-handedly my friend asked me how I felt about a city plan to provide safe parking for people who work in Sedona but have to live in their vehicles because they cannot afford the rent to live here, or even in Cottonwood. I said I thought it was a great idea and my friend’s expression went from calmness to shock. “I can’t believe you are telling me that with a straight face,” he gasped, as he dropped his fork on the table. “Do you know what you are saying.” Read more→
