Biking Moraine Hills State Park

We biked about 14 miles today through the rolling hills, forests, and prairies of Moraine Hills State Park, and at McHenry Dam we spotted this Great Blue Heron (lower left side of photo) stationed below the dam awaiting fish that might come soaring over the spillway. A dozen or more human fishermen were also engaged in that pursuit.



We also saw a deer and later a magnificent Indigo Bunting which did not cooperate with a photo opportunity.
