Pond Ice Disappearing


     I always look forward to seeing the winter ice on the pond start the melt.  The pond is so much more attractive when you can see it reflecting the sky once again.  It will be a couple more days before the ice is totally gone.  

    Yesterday when I walked around the pond, I was pleased to see that the pair of Hooded Mergansers had returned.  They have been coming for about 10 years  The female nests in a box on a tree and if everything goes as planned she will latter have a string of ducklings swimming behind her when they hatch.
