Beautiful Weather, Close Park

Gorgeous weather tonight. After work I coaxed Peggy out for a walk at the nearby lake. Here's Melba at the Close Park sign.

Melba met Anne Drummond at Drummond Lake and read her book with her. She's been on the same page for quite some time.

After the walk, we drove around to the Nathanael Greene side and came upon a very cooperative scissor-tailed flycatcher, one of my favorite birds.

Also saw an eastern phoebe.

Earlier, on the back side of the lake, we had happened across this beautiful brown thrasher.

Peggy had a pretty good day today.
