Long Lake Canoe Day Outing

August 16, 2019

We chose this day paddle from the brochure by Mississippi Field Naturalists.  We know where it was because we had use the launch as a checkpoint for the Crazy Canuck Adventure Challenge.

The lake was shallow and very weedy, which was somewhat disappointing.







Nevertheless, we had a good day.  We saw some birds and a Giant Swallowtail by the put in.





The lake had a couple of resident Great Blue Herons, Common Loons, Eastern Phoebes and several Eastern Kingbirds.






While packing up, we saw a very pale Red-tailed Hawk soar overhead
