I finally made it out to the lake fishing this evening. It was a very nice=
evening with the lake the highest that I've ever seen it. No trout to sho=
w for the effort and the first time I can remember going fishing there in t=
he evening during this time of year that I have not caught fish or at least=
had a hit. An osprey flying over the lake and not even giving it a look s=
hould have been a hint of what was to come. Other birds around the lake we=
re three ring-necked ducks with a two male one female spread, a vocal song =
sparrow that was drinking out of a water hole beside the lake, a northern f=
licker vocalizing, numerous American robins, not sounding like robins at al=
l and a pair of barred owls calling three hours before it would get somewha=
t dark. I also heard my first palm warbler giving a weak vocal. There wer=
e other birds about as well such as American crows and a red-breasted nutha=
tch. Quite a few insects were active including one definite mayfly.

A week ago Pat and I took a stroll out at Green Bay and there were thousand=
s of insects of many different species about. Any swallows or flycatchers =
would have had a real picnic had any been about.
