04/21/19 Stopping for lunch, I observed this nest with just a head showing in the nest. This surprised me as the nest had not been added to for at least three seasons, so I did not expect the nest well to be so deep. The male arrived with a fish, and the female immediately left the nest leaving the male with this Huh? look.

This nest was used by a pair of Canada Geese for the previous two seasons. 4//19/19 A single bird was standing on the nest, looking around expectedly. Really good to see them back!

This nest was pointed out to me this date by the owner of the small RV park. He said it has been there since the 2014 season, and occupied bith that year and 2015. While observing the nest from a long distance, one bird did fly into the nest. I will be able to tell more in better weather.
