Title: Reesor/Finch Pond
Post by: Steve Hood on September 06, 2015, 08:06:49 PM

I took these at the Reesor/Finch pond except for the last one which was taken at Lynde Shores.  A couple of lifers for me.

These Mallards were squawking at this turtle and tried to get on the perch.  The turtle didn't budge and eventually the Mallards gave up.
