Loons, loons, loons......

Today was spent peacefully at anchor under sunny skies and a comfortable breeze. We took one long dinghy ride in the morning and the rest of the day was spent just hanging out on the boat. We did have a fun evening spending time with the local cottagers, Norm and Elaine, socializing with them and the folks from other boats on shore at the cottage. We have about six boats in the bay tonight which is fewer than last night. Our hosts are very gracious with their time and property and gladly welcome all comers to the party. We're expecting rain tonight and drizzle tomorrow so today was the perfect day for the social hour.

During the idle time today I spent chasing a lone loon around the bay for some really nice shots and very up close. This loon was actively fishing so I had to guess where he might pop back up. Enjoy the pictures from today.

  1. Glad you guys spent a little time in the bay, and we are looking forward to your return in a week or so. We are glad that boaters do enjoy the get-togethers. It's always good to see our boating buddies, and we are happy to share our little piece of the North Channel with good people. Love your blog and love the pictures of the wildlife. When we have the chance we'll check out your pictures from years past.
