A bayou, a boy, a dog and some decoys.
This is the golden Lab that “found” this boy in his very own yard on a lovely spring afternoon. “Hey Mom, watch what Sis can do!” So, he throws the little stuffed duck way out, and she retrieves it every time–without fail. And she brings it right to the boy and gives it to him….

Evening on the bayou . . .

This was a Working Wetland
For four years now I’ve been writing on this blog, present tense, about life in the Louisiana wetland that surrounds me. How many years before I write the book which begins with the words,

Readers’ Choice Photo Winner

I see the good moon risin'
I see good things on the way. I think we’re in for pretty weather. I hope I can go fishin’ today! PS My cousin who grew up around New Orleans says this about this moon: I heard that Native Americans call it the Wolf Moon. In New Orleans it’s known as the King Cake Moon….
You got some great shots Wendy. Eagles are making a great comeback nation wide. We have seen so many in our travels. They are awesome birds we never tire of seeing.
They are really awesome birds. Thought of you day before yesterday, saw 3 osprey on the way back in from fishing.
I would’ve run off the road slamming my brakes seeing one of those magnificent birds!!!!! I know they winter here around Caddo and Lake O The Pines, but have never seen one except when we lived in Alaska…saw them all the time…..and was ALWAYS in awe of their powerful presence and breath taking beauty……You have inspired me to start watching for them locally. May have to run over to the lake today for a peek.

I still have family up that way, but I don’t get up there nearly as often as I’d like. Always enjoy your comments. That bird was GORGEOUS! Oh, did I mention I saw 3 osprey coming back from fishing Thursday?
