TAKE OUT TIME!


Early morning steam coming off the water and cool nights signal that it's time to take boats out and winterize. Pictured is Henry Leck and buddy from Sweetwater Lake meeting the boat mechanic at the launch ramp preparing for winterization.

SWAN SONG


Early morning kayakers were also enjoying the swans at the north end of Sweetwater. At present time, the swans seem quite docile but they have been known to be quite agressive in the spring. The Conservancy is dedicated to relocating the swans to a private owner's pond.

MORNING KAYAKERS


Early morning kayakers today! Anita, Betty, Cathy, and Marylou were out at 8:30 AM enjoying the glass-like water and the fall colors on Sweetwater Lake.

WING DRYING


I passed across Cordry Dam on Wednesday morning, September 29th about 11:00 AM and enjoyed the turkey vultures drying their wings in the sunshine. Some of their brothers and sisters were across the road at water's edge jumping in for a morning bath.
