Kayak Outing to Brewery Bay - birds of a feather Part I

I was motivated/inspired/forced to get out this morning by the best intentions of Patti and Doug. And so I took the kayak out for the first time this year.

I was looking at Dogwood blossoms:

Other highlights this morning were 10 ducklings, 10 goslings, and 50 Canada geese in a"V" flying north. Maybe they will appear here at a later time. wob
