Tks. STL. Appreciate the ID
Those turtles you capture  great. Timing is everything when critters are balanced on a log.

Many thanks to whoever was flying the camera this afternoon and gave us The Blue Angels at French Island.
Hoping there's a Sunday show too, with blue skies.

Yes, there's a Blue Angels air show this afternoon.  Watch on the Flyway video from about 3:00.  Very cool formations.

Close ups of a pair of mallards resting on the  posing log about 11:00 this morning.  Thanks to the cam ops!

High water at the Flyway from all the rain.  Looks like the Coopers, the resident BE pair, might be fishing together this morning about 10:00.  They caught a large sucker-type fish and hauled it out on the photo-op log, which is mostly underwater.  Watch the rewind for eagle swimming.

The perching and posing log (dead tree in the water) is a popular perching and basking spot this afternoon.  The water is still pretty high so good places to rest are at a premium.

The pic you get depends on when you look and what the cam ops are focusing on!!  The water is still really high at the Flyway.  One turtle was taking advantage of a dry spot to bask a bit when I looked in mid-morning.
