Golden-sparkled water
Purple Martin songs and goose calls
Killdeer, mallards, mergansers and geese
Bright green sprinkles up higher in trees
Giant snapper explores 4SE shallows
Goose arguments from island in 3
Turtles line the banks of 1 and 2
Omnipresent thirst of new greens soaking up sun
Sweet scent of flowering shrubs
Paddlefish peek up and flit away
Giant carp line the water’s edge of 1N
Cormorant borrows Turtles’ perch with his OG branch submerged
Paddling straight into wind-shimmered water
A few geese have managed to find some nesting spots on islands of 3 and 4
Mallard nest along 3E banks
Goose posse on the ready for any approach
Finches bounce from bush to bush
Turtles drop into water from their rocks
So much energy rising
