April 2 Spring is coming....Lion's Head

Ok, I went to the bay where I paddle in the summer... the ice is leaving in chunks...floating here and there.. hard to believe it's the same spot that welcomes me with warm water and no fear of falling in it!! This is still bloody cold water... yet it's melting...the ice is in the inner bay and along the
shore yet it's MELTING................

Such vibrant blues....in contrast to the whites.........



Yes, mating has begun...these 2 nibbled the ice and the male chased off 3 other suitors...while I was there...no doubt about this female being his partner.... I bet their feet are ice cold....brrrr....

The sheets of ice have shifted like plates...

Here the boats wait for the ice to go... each propped up and stored on the warf.....

Beautiful water colours indeed. Adam saw a fella kyaking last week in a farmer's field during the fast meltdown. Too funny...I thought of you when he told me that.

Very nice dinner Bruce put together.
