We decided to take the day off yesterday and watch trains. The grass really needed cutting, but we have allot of trees and it keeps everything too wet to mow till about 3:o'clock in the afternoon.
The day began quite foggy again, and 53º On the drive to our destination we go by a rather large pond where we saw this Great Blue Heron. He flew to the farthest end of the pond, just so I couldn't get a good picture I'm sure.

Right in the same area I spotted this Belted Kingfisher. He too was far away.

Farther down the road we are up quite high and have a good view of Lake Erie, and we could see this large ship

Also we can see our friends in Canada. It is 30 miles across the lake at this point.

We have reached the area where we watch trains. Traffic was slow yesterday due to some rail repairs, so while we wait I decided to walk around and do some picture taking of the flowers that grow along the railroad tracks.

We didn't stay too long. It was getting hot.
