Birding & Walking at Loch Raven

I am linking up with Mosaic Monday and Sunday Bridges   and Our World Tuesday

On Saturday, hubby and I took a walk locally at the Loch Raven Reservoir. The reservoir is one of three reservoirs that Baltimore City owns for their drinking water. On the weekends part of the road around the reservoir is closed for hikers, bikers and joggers. It is a very pretty and scenic area to view while you are out walking.  I also enjoy the birds in the lake, we saw Bufflehead ducks, a Gadwall, a Mute Swan, lots of seagulls and Canada Geese.


In the mosiac I have pictured top left a Bufflehead duck, a flock of seagulls being fed, one of the bridges going over the lake, middle left a Gadwall, middle right is a Mute Swan, bottom row is the same bridge and more seagulls.






It was a windy and chilly day so we did a brisk walk on the road and walk down closer to the lake to look at the birds.



This swan was quite a ways out in the water but I swear it was giving me the evil eye.
