For a smile as wide as a country sunrise
Hi everyone! It was a beautiful day here today! The sun was shining, almost no wind and the temperature was 64F (18C) which made it feel like a normal spring day in May.
So, I just had to get out and take some more pictures this morning. Mostly I was just taking some different scenery photos, but I did get some duck photos as well. But, for today it will be scenery, one showing a cottage on an island of our lake and the other showing where a creek flows into our lake.

This is where a creek flows into our lake.
There was a lot of bird life though, from Red-Wing Blackbirds and Grackles to Song Sparrows, Tree Swallows, Eastern Phoebe, Mallards, Bufflehead, Yellow-Rumped Warbler, and many others. Unfortunately the majority of them stayed away from my camera lens.

Here is a cottage on an island of our lake.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy today’s selection. Have a great day and God bless!
