She swims into the crib dock and ripples can be seen under the boathouse as she must be moving around. When the ripples stop, she heads back to the edge of the ice. I would think she would be tired by now but the urge to build a nest must be stronger than fatigue.
And some people think there is nothing to do at the lake during the winter. All you have to do is open your eyes and you'll see plenty of interesting things.  |
That sounds wonderful to watch. I would love to watch and get some pics of something like that. I am not right on the water so it makes it hard to see those wonderful things.
