Morning Has Broken |
||||
|
||
| Early morning visit to Coyote Lake County Park. | ||
|
||
| While Mike dropped line in water, | ||
|
||
| I wandered around observing nature and picking up shoreline litter. | ||
|
||
| Nature's Altar: a collection of driftwood, rocks, leaf litter. | ||
|
||
| Morning has broken. | ||
|
||
| Amid the wonders, discovered a newly emerged Monarch Butterfly. | ||
|
||
| Watched as the sun's rays warmed it. | ||
|
||
| Ever so slowly it unfolded its wings. | ||
|
||
| Intermittingly extending, beating its wings, gathering strength for the day. | ||
|
||
| Coyote Lake is very popular with those who fish for sport and for the table. | ||
|
||
| Practicing "catch and release", take a deep breath and hold it
as you remove the fish from the water. To avoid brain damage to the fish, you must return it to the water as you exhale. |
||
|
||
| Use the Mendoza Ranch entrance to access a trail or to explore or fish Roop Pond. |
