Weather was incredible though. Also, NORTH still has LARGE amounts
of snow compared to Des Moines.
This weekend I thought I would stay in the car, and look for signs
there will be a waterfowl migration sometime soon. Late February at
Clear Lake often gives a preview. Not this year. The two holes are the
smallest I have ever seen them at this time of year, and between them
there was one duck.
I heard that Smith Lake (north of Algona) hosted a wandering group of
six Trumpeter Swans for a day last week around its little aerator hole.
Today, I stuck my head out of my burrow, saw my shadow, and glumly
headed back inside.
