MI after the Rain

A welcome rain on a lazy Sunday.  Softly drenching the garden and with warm temps! so our Osprey only had to protect against one element.  The drizzle continues but I had to capture the view of my favorite Monkey Island in the east.

The Island is green with foliage and on clear days you can see the bright white spots of egrets and herons that nest in those trees.  A boat ride over is on the agenda!

The nesting birds travel across the sound to feed in our wetlands and waterways.  We get to watch them fly over twice daily it seems.  Sometimes they get bound here by the strong winds and the causeway fills with birds feasting in the low water while on layover.
