We stayed the day at Roper Lake State Park. It's been a relaxing day-bird watching, hiking the desert nature trail, bicycling, grilling supper, reading, and napping in the sun. The 70 degree weather was welcome!

The water level is way down, due to the lack of rain last season. But with only a 10 -12 inch average rain fall per year, it will take a while to fill it back up. The waters come from Graham mountain to the west, and we do see some snow on the upper ridges.

Yellow headed blackbirds. |
There is a large flock that visits the rushes and tonight is roosting in the pines on the island. They make the sweetest sounds as they fly overhead.

That's our motorhome across the lake, almost hidden by the bushes. Helen
