Let me think...being on a small island with a Grizzly sounds quite interesting. I love your photos and wish you had seen a bear or two.


The sound of the birds is deafening when the bears are on the island! We have watched the bears swim between the main land out to the island and back but it's been a couple of years since we have been there at the right time.

Took a trip over to Lake Francis to fish for walleye....water was still on the cold side 39 degrees....so the fishing wasn't that great. The lake is only 3600 acres but great for walleye and Northern Pike. We did bring in 3 walleye for the freezer so at least I have dinner!

But the scenery makes the trip worth it. Plus there is an island in the middle of the lake that has 1000's of birds during spring time for nesting. Seagulls, Snow Geese, Canada Geese, Great Blue Heron's, Coots, Mallards, Double Crested Cormorants and some that I can't identify. There usually are Grizzly bears that come down from the Rocky Mtn front to feed on that island...we usually see them but were a little early and the bears were not there yet.

Will make additional posts with the various birds.

Images 1,4,5, are marvelous. You really captured a mood for each image. Images 2,3 are good photographs but, there is no story, just trees with birds on the branches.

Thanks Rich and #2, 3 are to give you perspective on just how many birds there are.
