April 2nd - Cadboro Bay (#20)

I went for a solo morning paddle around the bay on the surf ski. Conditions were very nice as I was able to beat the afternoon winds. Plenty of birds around, including hooded and common mergansers, double-crested and pelagic cormorants, surf scoters and buffleheads. I think that many of the winter visiting migrants will be leaving us soon and the summer residents will reappear. The great blue herons have started nesting across the street!
