Here, I thought Meander Lake was my little secret. We have seen a
Great Blue Heron there for most of the summer. There are also a male
and female Belted Kingfisher nesting there. The female has a little
red on the tummy. A pair of Killdeer prance on the gravel boat ramp
every time I visit with my new scope.
There is also a pair of Green Herons nesting under the brush on the
bank on the shooting range side of the lake, but I only see them
when they flush.
