We've lived next to this lake for nearly 20 years and only a few times have we spotted a swan. This one posed so beautifully for my neighbor, Lorrie and me. We just sat and enjoyed... and I'm suddenly reminded that I take this lake for granted! The weather is ideal today and I should be sitting outside basking. I think I'll wait for sunset and check for swans. Past Lake Fun: When neighbors helped raise baby ducks, (abused by father duck) then all gathered for a freeing celebration... Rescuing many a turtle in the pool and carrying them to the lake... Floating with wine glasses in our clunky, metal canoe... Construction workers amusing us with soccer at lunch, then swimming after the lost ball... The kids fishing in the lake!

I remember that day and that swan, it was so pretty. I tried to feed it lettuce and it was insulted. Corn tortilla were tolerated though. 😄

That was such a lovely evening, Lorrie! I'd forgotten the lettuce. With cool weather coming, we'll have to get ourselves out there some more!
