Great Egret

 This is the first Egret I have seen much less photographed.  Way cool!

Great Egret Ardea alba

Trillium and Hares

 Have not seen these guys for a while.  All winter they have left footprints, but no sitings.

 More Trillium

More White Trillium

Mostly Flowers and a snake

 Trout Lily are out in abundance actually in the woods.

 Large-flowered Trillium

No so large Garter Snake found by Grenville in the old leaves.

Warm and rain free for hours

 This Northern Water Snake was out sunning but was probably driven from it's den by high water on the lake.

 These Wood duck were on the path in the water covering the path.  You can see the water covering the path from all the rain we have .

 This Muskrat was patrolling the road ditch.

At the state boat launch in Woodville, NY you can almost launch your boat in the parking lot.  Missing from the picture is the docks that are underwater.

A day at Fishers park

 A nice place to sit awhile.

 Watch the Blue Birds

Or the frogs

Spring is finially blooming forth ...

 Bloodroot has finally opened out.

 Not sure if this is Wintergreen or some other flower but there are bunches turning up

The Trillium have arrived, only about 15 days later than last year.

On the move ...

 Locally we found this Marsh Marigold, the first of he year.  On the way to the Southern Tier we saw a bouquet.  Oh well the south is so much ahead of us North of 42°

 Had to stop and get picture of the White Deer (and the regular white tail)

 The Taughannock creek really cruising with all the rain we are having and have had in the last few days.

Taughannock Falls SP. The ice is gone but the water is flowing full on.  The rain falling and the mist are doing their best to obscure the falls.
