More Chippewa Flowage 2009 Photos

Top Left - this Eagle is watching the shoreline for spawning panfish the way it looks. He really didn't appear to mind at the time that we were watching him. This Eagle in the next photo on the right saw us coming from quite a ways away. There's been Eagles in this nest for the 10 or 11 years now that we've been going up there.

If you look carefully you'll see three Blue Hurons sitting in their nests in the top left photo. The picture was taken with a Canon Rebel with a 300MM Lens as most of the wildlife photos. This Loon was in the Crane Lake area and we believe she had a nearby nest because she really acted strange as if she didn't want to leave the area, but kept calling for her mate that was quite a ways away. The area we are in was always good for Bluegills.

The first picture you'll see the Blue Huron hunting as the Turtle is just laying there sunning himself. After the Huron flew away I grabbed a picture of the Sand Turtle. Shortly after the photo was taken he must have figured we were getting too close so it went into the water.

I believe this is the day we had a high temperature of 49 degrees. Later on in the day it got a little windy too.

The sign speaks for itself. This is one of the postings in the cabin. Friday night after a burst of rain we were presented with this rainbow that appeared to come right out of the middle of the Lake. The picture really doesn't do it justice. This young Eagle on the above right watched us for a while when we were getting some photos of the Hurons in the Nests above. Once we got too close, it left the scene.

Since these are still taken with the Canon - I left them in sequence. Mona is running the Movie Camera for the reality movie we plan on releasing next year (just kidding). In the 2nd photo she is looking out the cabin window and Brew has me covered from outside in the lower right.
