| FROGGY GOES A COURTIN' |

WHILE A RED-WINGED BLACKBIRD PROCLAIMS HIS TERRITORY

Monday, 8:00 AM. 40 degrees F at the ferry dock, 37 on the back porch. Wind variable and calm. Teh sky is clear the barometer 30,17" and falling. Today will be on the cool side, then it will warm to the 50's during the week, with mixed skies and no precipitation predicted until next week. It will be a good week for doing the rock wall planting on the lake, an interesting job that I will report on as it goes along.
The rivers and marshes are all at their high water mark, the marsh at the beach is no exception, and it is filled with red-winged blackbirds proclaiming their nesting territory and bullfrogs proclaiming theirs, both sounds otherwise not much heard there. I communicated with a quite vociferous frog for some time, but he stayed hidden in the reeds and I never saw him.
Life at the beach is good this year, and everyone's goin' a courtin'.
