As you can guess by my lack of blogging this week, Christmas Break is over and we’re back at school/work. But before life got back to being busy busy, hubby & I took a day for ourselves, visiting relatives and ending our day at Reelfoot Lake to catch a good catfish dinner at Boyette’s and a nice sunset. Of course there was plenty of wildlife around, although most of it was too far away for even my super-zoom.

The lake was cold but beautiful.

Ring-Billed Gull in Flight

Hundreds of Ring-Billed Gulls migrate to the lake every Winter

…along with hundreds of Canada Geese

Seeing this Barred Owl was a treat! He was lucky he didn’t get hit because he was sitting right beside the road until we drove by and turned around, then he perched along the railroad tracks, looking for a late afternoon meal.

Pretty nice end to a gorgeous day!

Just a short sweet and *to the point* blog for me today. Happy New Year Everyone!

This was taken one year ago today, the first sunset of 2010, over Reelfoot Lake. I’m hoping tonight’s sunset is just as beautiful.
