we ran into logging trucks before we even hit the gravel
Beavertail Lake
complete with our own private dock
and a sweet little campsite all to ourselves
sure was pretty when the sun was out
this guy is the reason for the lake's name
he was busy eating the green reeds
then to our amazement several loons flew in
we counted eleven adults in total...lots of calling
the most we have ever seen before is two parents and two babies
such a beautiful bird
afternoon sun breaks between dark clouds
awesome natural heat for my sore back
my sweetheart in the wilderness
molten moss
a cute little "one tree" island
we paddled into a bay and spotted this huge nest
an eaglet was squawking but we couldn't see it
then mom showed up and really got an earful
after a few minutes she got tired of it and flew off
Reginald Lake
we have had good luck with a dry fly here
it was great to have a warm sunny day
just relaxing
then a snake swam by
yikes...it was 2' long
and while I was busy getting a shot of the snake
this nice rainbow took my fly...too funny
it was a fantastic four days with lots of wildlife
and some great fishing
Hi Russ,
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect fishing weekend! Eeeks, a snake....in the water.....my worst nightmare....I would have been hard-pressed to put my hands in the water for quite some time!
Love your sweetheart picture. Black background makes your pictures look even more fantastic.

Love that shot of the kayak at Reginald Lake. The whole trip report is great. Makes me want to be out there!
