Tamarack Park, White Bear Lake Township - Dec 2008








A Saturday hike shortened by Winter weather, but made up for by a warm and wonderful lunch at Bea's. The best sightings of a hawk on the ground with it's prey less than 15 feet from our path. Also spotted woodpeckers and squirrels and I believe a new outdoor sculpture since we last hiked this location! Missed a couple of our regular hikers, but so good to have Barbara, Rachel, Dorothy and Jocko join us. Such a comfortable time together - who noticed the weather was turning nasty and the roads nastier. But hey, we're Minnesotans!
And thanks to Jocko aka HJ for the hawk photo!
