I was out to catch about four perch for supper, but the bite was not there. I did get bit by more mosquitoes than I had fish bite my bait. I was totally dismayed that I am already having to deal with these skeets.
Although the fishing was not good the bird watching was just amazing. It is just awesome to hear air ripping over the feathers of ducks and looking up and catching a glimpse of them streaking by. I am always impressed by the amount of waterfowl and other birds I see here in the spring. About the only time their wingbeats are absent is when they are drowned out by the rumbling of the many passing trains.
