About a week ago I had to get out ...needed some fresh air..but it was hard to find..took a drive to Santee State Park, located on the west side of Lake Marion in the PeeDee region of South Carolina the lake is famous for bass fishing and Ospreys! It was so hazy...and the water was so still...the light was flat and hard to get a decent photo of anything...but life is not always in Kodachrome! HOW about Monochrome?...so this is what I came back with on that outting--
The Lake
These ring billed gulls made several attempts at grabbing something in the water...they have webbed feet so I can't imagine what they hoped to grab/snag!
a thin line of double crested coromorants made a sweep over the lake looking for food...
A couple of gulls took a slow ride on a log drifting with the easy current...
the Laughing Gulls are getting the famous black head for breeding season...
while I was parking the car I spotted an Osprey with a 3 lb bass in his talons he was being swamped by other Ospreys who hoped he would drop his catch... but like I said I was parking the car...got this fly by later and the sky straight up was blue...but the haze continued to hover over the lake...
The Dogwood blossoms are peeking through the Spanish Moss that seems to thrive in this part of the state. ITS Spring ~Full Blown~
