Jordan Lake
One of the highlights of the week was a trip to Jordan Lake which is a large lake about 1-1/2 hours drive north of here. It is just east of Pittsboro on US-64. We launched the boat at Farrington Point at the northern end of the lake at about 4:00 p.m. and went northeast from there abour 3-4 miles. There were egrets,
great blue herons, ospreys, cormorants and of course the noble bald eagle. I took the fishing equipment but we spent all of our time exploring and viewing wildlife. We ate our supper at a quiet secluded spot near some willows. We returned to the launch ramp at dusk and thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon and evening. We didn't take any new pictures because we already have some to show from previous trips. The picture at the right is an osprey.# posted by Bob @ 8/27/2006 07:02:00 PM
