On Thompson Lake: Emiquon in September

Ed and I had the opportunity to go out on Thompson Lake in one of the Nature Conservancy's canoes. The view from the lake is wonderful. Lots of clouds that day, making for some interesting photographs.

This heron was flying with such a straight neck that I thought it was a crane! As it prepared to land on the beaver lodge on Thompson Lake, it pulled its neck back in and regained its heron composure.
