Spring by the lake (May 8, 2019)

Spring is upon us here in Ohio and its a time of new life. The flowers are colorful, the trees are blooming (sadly the pollen is flying) and yes...duck families are crossing the street. It is a wonderful time of year and have been enjoying many sights such as these around the area. 

Geese are also raising their babies as seen in the photo at left. While the ducks due not seem overly concerned with people taking photos, the geese are amazingly protective of their young.
Geese in the area usually start honking when someone is nearby while the mother and father for lack of a better term...bark at me.
I give them a good distance and stand well clear. Got a good camera with a good zoom and was able to get this photo.
I find all of this amazing and really enjoy the early morning and evening walks around the area to get photos and to just enjoy the wonders of nature and all it has to offer 

As I have said, its blooming around here. Fun to just check out the sights, the sounds and the smells that can be experienced here.
This is my first Spring living in Ohio and I am enjoying it a great deal. Fun both to ride the motorcycle and to check out the neighborhood I live in.
It is all still a new adventure and having a wonderful time here.
