The multiple visits of these Canada geese on Lake Contoocook in New Hampshire last week provided plenty of photo opportunities. I am not always so lucky.

If you are a fish, this could be the last thing you ever see.
Osprey mom on duty
On the other side of the Great Marsh is an osprey nest that has typically sponsored a family every year as far back as anyone can remember. This year is no different. We think this is a mom sitting on her eggs. She stays put even when anyone walks by. Another osprey, presumed to be the dad, is frequently seen nearby.
