One year ago…hard to believe how different this winter has been! While the warm”ish”, dry weather has been great for outdoor adventures, we’re definitely ready for a good winter storm to blanket the trails and bring much-needed snow to the mountains! ❄️🌨️

Ice conditions update! Good news we finally have ice to measure! Around the boat dock we averaged 4". Please remember that thickness can vary from one place to another so if you choose to go out please check as you go out farther.

The loggerhead shrike (Lanius ludovicianus) is a fascinating bird to me. Did you know this bird is carnivorous? They feed on small rodents and even other birds. Yes, a songbird with meat-eating habits! 😲
