[birdky] Paddling Crappie Hollow

We spent 3 1/2 hours paddling on the back embayment of Blood  River.  It was 
good to hear the returning breeders singing their  songs.  The Bald Eagle was 
sitting above it's nest but we can't tell  if there are chicks in the nest.  
The lake level has risen to 358 so there  is no remaining shoreline or 
shorebird habitat.
Listed are the highlights.
