"HOME HOME ON THE BAY"

MORNING GREETINGS FROM DORCAS BAY
Great Blue Heron
This heron had close to a seven foot wing span.
Our dock by the bay.
Many wild flowers are a result our large snow fall this year.
The combination of large snowfall and thin top soil resulted in the lost of this large
 pine tree located between our home and orchard.
Some of the wild plants go through an amazing transformation to become
 the ground cover we view almost everyday.
The view from our dining room.
"Bruce" can't take his eyes off the lake.
With the lake water much higher this spring, trout have entered the
wet land pond.
